GM organisms could be contained. That `gene flow' (the ability to contaminate non-GM varieties) ("The Dangers") would not occur. Yet by logical standards this arguments had very little weight behind it. The Innes Centre, one of Europe's leading research institutes on GM crops, carried out research for a United Kingdom Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs advisory committee. They reported: GM crops will "inevitably" contaminate organic crops. Pollen and seed pollution by GM crops could not be avoided ("Background paper"). Wind will blow, air currents will traverse the globe – scattering any air-born pollen on non-GM fields and contaminating them. If the "sand form the Sahara Desert can [blow] into Europe," note some researchers, then genetically modified organisms [GMO] will be able to pollute anywhere, given the right circumstances (Power, "Smoking"). Overwhelming evidence over the past five years has dismantled any argument biotechs could possibly make. In a "one-telephone village" in Northern Mexico corn stalks grow in the sidewalk, in
