That's very interesting.

Remeber to tag your posts. There is an edit tags bar towards the bottom of the posting window and in threads so other people can add tags too. Everone can add two tags to a thread. . i added the organic tag to this thread for example.

You're welcome. I've been following this information for several years. Back in 2002 (I think that was the year - can't remember right now) when the new organic laws were passed, there was a huge jump by major corporations to buy independent organic food producers.
