From: joyce yancey [dokiedo@juno.com] Sent: Monday, February 05, 2001 10:05 PM To: fdadockets@oc.fda.gov Dear Sirs: I would like to register a protest to the proposed legislation by the FDA which limits labeling of genetically engineered foods to those companies who do not use them, and to be done on a voluntary basis! I cannot believe such short-sightedness! Don't you and your families eat? Do you intend to wait until someone YOU love gets sick or has a problem before taking action? There is already enough evidence coming forward to indicate the need for caution. Only the very strictest of testing should be done and labeling should be mandatory for all GE foods, before it is put out for human consumption! I for one, will grow my own veggies and fruits or buy them from farmers I know and trust if you do not tighten up that law to the maximum! Play Russian roulette with your own families please, and leave the average American consumer out of the game! I won't even buy your GE seeds, but will collect my own now, before the entire market is screwed up! Thank You very much, Joyce Yancey, Registered Nurse, Concerned Voter!!!
