Boys will be girls - eventually |

Mark Townsend Sunday July 18, 2004 The Observer Extinction threat rises as creatures ingest 'gender-bending' chemicals from plastics and pesticides Mother narure is taking over. An extraordinary feminisation process has begun to affect Britain's wildlife - and scientists warn it could ultimately dismantle the evolutionary process that has existed for 3.5 billion years.
'We have reached a crucial point. Now we are starting to see the effects while only just starting to understand what is happening. This poses a serious threat to species in some areas,' said Tyler.
Others studying the phenomena say the feminisation process is a warning from nature that a nightmare is about to unfold. http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,6903,1263753,00.html

1. What kind of report is this? |
|
There was no mention of the Chief Executive Officer, or of an upcoming IPO... no forward-looking statements about profitability, or heroic entrepeneurs from Yale... no assurances that we can push the buttons on all life's manifestations like they were little machines and get the expected results now and in perpetuity... and no visions of endless worldwide economic growth made possible by Product X.
Don't these troublemaking Luddites know what science is?
