    If one follows the thread of this scintillating logic, one will 
recall that the that the component of OXYGEN in our atmosphere is 
ascribed to the efforts of early algal blooms and other primeval 
lifeforms, Therefore the air we breath is also the result of genetic 
modification, even more so as certain bipedal carbon based lifeforms add 
still more interesting and complex molecules to the planets gaseous 
envelope. Ah, brave new world...
    Go ahead and eat, but ponder on breathing...
