Greetings!

The past two weeks have seen a furry of activity in the biotechnology world. While the corporate press has been focusing on the first cloning of Cat, a far more disturbing story is coming from Canada- genetically engineered pigs found their way from a lab into the food supply. While pontiffs speculate what cloned cats might mean for companies like Transgenicpets.com, there has been movement by more than 9 countries to stop biopiracy. Meanwhile, activists have called for a week of action- Resistance is Fertial- in Den Haag in early April.
