From: David Hokey [dhokey@home.com] Sent: Saturday, March 24, 2001 10:26 AM To: fdadockets@oc.fda.gov Subject: Docket 00N-1396 & Docket 00D-1598 Hello! I recently received an e-mail regarding genetically engineered foods. The e-mail encouraged me to discourage you to allow genetically engineered foods on the market. However, I beleive that genetic engineering has incredible potential. Further, I support the immediate introduction of genetically engineered foods in the market. I believe that the vast majority of those against genetic engineering are completely ignorant of the process and how it works. Perhaps public education on genetic engineering would reduce public opposition. Sincerely, David Hokey
