We have a world wide major corporation of Monstersanto that has run amok with the GMO changes in our food supply, so lets just make it available to the general public and see what they come up with. I am sure some kid will find a use that benefits society and stop making the backwards running clocks in a suitcase that get you kicked out of school things. I so totally trust the population at large to create things that won't be a danger to people. </sarcasm>
CEO Connor Dickie
Is it just me or does this picture not give you that warm and fuzzy feeling all over...
Well I certainly feel much safer now, makes you think we won't have to worry about a out of control governments or PTB creating a population reduction in the human race we might just do it ourselves without their help. At this point learning the old ways is looking better and better.
"A Canadian company is trying to make it possible for anyone to be a “biohacker” and make custom genetically modified organisms in their home kitchen.
Homemade GMOs may sound scary to some, but Toronto-based Synbiota thinks making genetic engineering technology available to ordinary people will lead to new products that we haven’t yet dreamed of."

"To explain, Synbiota CEO Connor Dickie pointed to the history of computer science. Today, even 12-year-olds can write cool little apps that make music or other things “that would never be conceived by the computer science PhDs from the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s.”
He envisions a similar revolution in biology.
“A lot of fear around GMOs today is in my opinion based out of people that don’t have an understanding of what a GMO is,” he said, adding that part of the problem is that genetic technology has mainly only been accessible to researchers and big corporations such as Monsanto.
“This technology puts the same power in your hands,” Dickie said. “We’re making it possible for artists and designers and teenagers and mothers and students and educators to do real genetic engineering.”

"In between sipping cups of beer from a keg in the backyard, party-goers could use software on a laptop in the living room to design a custom plasmid – a loop of DNA – that will turn E. coli bacteria the colour of your choice.
On the kitchen table, small tubes held the DNA sequences and connectors that let people build their plasmids for real. The bacteria and DNA were then combined in a process called transformation using a special tool. They were painted onto Petri dishes and popped into an incubator near the TV. By the next night, colourful spots were starting to appear on the plates."
