Those unhappy with Bayer not being able to keep their seed coating sticking
to the seeds can simply instead buy GMO corn seed with Monsanto's Pioneer
OptimumR AcreMaxR Insect Protection System seed traits.
 
Yes this turns out to be the "Pollinator Protection Racket" Part Trois, and
in this exciting episode, the fundraising juggernauts of the activist groups
start pointing fingers at each other, as those who trying to ban GMOs are,
in essence, forcing growers to use more systemic pesticides, while those
working to ban systemic pesticides are, in essence, forcing growers to use
more GMOs.  Those not wishing to take sides pop large bowls of popcorn,
settle down on the couch for a good show, and suffer a near-fatal overdose
of irony when realizing that they chose to make popcorn.
