Jim:  "That's just ONE strain of rice, and it took me two cups of coffee to explain the basic bullet points."

Exactly.  No number of attendances at "plant geneticist conferences" is going to change the realities.

It is much easier to help the third world by not interfering with their tried-and-true methods of agriculture, by not exploiting their resources, and by trying to support their fledgling democracies (where any exist).  Education opportunities for the third world is the best place to send your charity dollars.

Oh...and the tropics + limited resources = top bar hives.
