[Imc] Monsanto on campus tomorrow - anyone want to report on it?

[Sehvilla]

 I would very much like to cover this talk. 
 I will need to leave it in time to get to a class which starts at 5:30. 
 Anybody else also want to report?
Can I use the minidisc player and a minidisc track to record it?
I'll stop by the IMC this evening to ask. 
  
:)

"...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").
