[Imc] possible stories for Monday's show

[Sehvilla]

Sarah/IMC, 
 I will be doing a "guest editorial" on Monday night's show based on three
biotech events I have been to in the past week (a talk by a scientist who
works for Monsanto, the 2001 ag expo, and "University-Corporate relations
and how they affect biotechnology research", a lecture by Micheal K.
Hansen, who works for the Consumers Union). 
   :)

"...Monsanto's own tests showed increased levels of mastitis, a painful 
udder infection, in cows injected with rBGH. According to food safety
experts, increased levels of mastitis would force farmers to use more
antibiotics, which would be more likely to contaminate the cows' milk. 
rBGH milk would also spoil faster because it contains more bacteria and 
has a higher "somatic cell count" (translated into layman's language, this 
means that the milk contains "more pus").
