Does Bt Corn threaten any Rare Prairie Skippers

[Mark Walker]

Skippers?

Friends of Barbie?  Friends of Gilligan?

Sorry, I couldn't resist.  Of course - the reason is that no one of stature
would take notice if it were smallish, orangish, moth-like day-flying bugs
that pretend to be butterflies that were the species of concern.  But
Monarchs!  Aren't they royalty?

Hmmmmmm...  Maybe I stayed eating dinner in that bar a tad bit too long...
