an article in salon raises one of the questions i've had about the patent liabilities of genetically modified seeds. what happens when crops cross-pollinate and someone is found 'guilty' of patent infringement in cases of cross-pollination? are we headed towards a future in which everyone who tries to grow anything anywhere has to pay tribute to the owner of a patented gene?
it's not like you can control nature. cross-pollination is inevitable.
