It would be better if you give the primary source ratherr than these "newspaper" articles.

If I wrote that unidentified scientists have shown that blogging about roundup makes yuor ears fall off then in terms of allowing the reader to trace the ideas back to their source it would be about the same in terms of difficulty.

I remember researching them during my Geological studies. They tried to sue farmers from using their GM crops (when actually theirs got contaminated by Monsanto's poorly regulated GM crops) and Indian farmers committing suicide from crop failure. I can't remember what else they did...but they're evil, yup.

Trying to remember how it linked from Geology to GMOs...

Point of order - I call the source into question due to an Appeal to Ignorance.

"CKDu is a new form of disease" is a patently nonsensical statement. The source has already specified that the "u" suffix infers that the cause is "unknown", thus it is clear that "CKDu" refers to any chronic kidney disease of unknown cause.

This includes any chronic kidney disease that remains undiagnosed.

Motion to table discussion until meaningful data have been revealed.
