Abstract
Good afternoon. To begin, I’d like to thank Ed Wallis and the Richmond Journal of Law & Tech- nology for inviting me to speak on such a distinguished panel. And I’d like to tell you one thing about myself that is not in my fancy lawyer biography. I grew up on a small family farm down in North Caro- lina, so I learned from an early age about the different types of genetic manipulations that go on a farm, from breeding cattle to grafting apple trees, which if you’re fourteen years old, consists of spending your entire Spring Break taking one kind of apple tree with sturdy rootstock, and a branch from another kind of tree that makes tasty apples, smushing them together, wrapping the result in freezer tape, and planting it. It’s not Johnny Appleseed, but it works.
