    Very enjoyable. It was my first meeting and I wish I could have stayed longer.

    Excellent speaker presentation on a controversial subject

    Excellent presentation, thanks Hine. Offloaded my phobias about mythical GE threats and replaced them with real ones e.g. corporatisation. It is amazing the way the media play with our minds. Definitely need to keep the pressure on the politicians and I'm looking forward to biting into one of those red GE apples. Great quiz, thanks Alyx - did not know many answers but learned heaps, and none of it trivia.

    Excellent, interesting talk, clearly expressed with good powerpoint. Steered off course somewhat - a genetic scientist can't be expected to provide solutions to problems of multinational business practice and political controls. Horrible jazz noise from next door made hearing difficult and drowned questions out altogether.

    I can't recall a better talk at one of these events than Hine's. The selection of slides was judicious, and the sequencing quite coherent. Her presentation of the pros and cons of GE food was nearly as impartial as one will get on such a partisan topic. The interjection of the lady with the google search on 'Monsanto lunchroom' was great, as were the comic riffs from the videographer.

    Informative and interesting talk by Hine, and fun quiz by Alex.

    Found the topic interesting and well presented - well done Hine! Now more concerned about the corporatisation of GM food than I was before

    Great, hope the TV3 video doesnt get edited down to Homeopathic dilution

    Thanks for the time and effort you put in to demonstrate how homeopathy is really a load of codswallop

    Wasn't impressed that the advertised start time was 6.30, but actual start was 7.30. I didn't learn anything new, but I was entertained and I did enjoy it.

    The speaker was probably better suited to a political meetup group, the subject had Nothing to do skepticism. Waste of time.

  • allanc
    Opinionated speaker - which is good!
