Considering the following facts,
could anyone on earth reasonably conclude
that genetically engineered organisms are safe?

• the number of genes in the human genome could range from 27,462 to 153,478 as of July 2001
• there are about 100 trillion cells in the human body.
• If all DNA in the human body were placed end to end, it would reach to the Sun and back more than 600 times.

Stack that against the world's most advanced computing technology

• ASCI White, the most powerful computer on earth - To calculate the movements of a mere 600 atoms in an explosion-produced mixture of hydrogen fluoride and water vapor for 1-trillionth of a second, scientists have had to tie up the most powerful supercomputer available for about 15 days. - Science News v.160 25aug01
