Bill said "With genetically modified crops such as soybeans, herbicide
resistance is
carried to future generations.  Thus the requirement for growers to sign a
contract, when purchasing seed, agreeing not to save seed for planting the
following year -- a common practice with self pollinating crops such as
soybeans."

I stand corrected.  It turns out my information was based on corn (maize),
which is not self-pollinating.
