Subject: Docket 00N-1396 & Docket 00D-1598

Regarding new genetic foods and drugs:
 
Please require mandatory pre-market safety testing.  

Please require mandatory labeling of GE foods.  Require labeling of all foods exchanged commercially - Do not make an exception for the most potentially dangerous of foods. 

Please ensure public access to adequate information for independent review

To do less is to say uninformed accent is legal.  It is not.  
I have the right to choice.  
    Your job is not to take information away. 
 
P.S. While I have some biotech stock and support genetic and DNA research, I do not support allowing a few to throw caution to the wind and endanger all of us.   The least we owe people in America is the right to choice.
