  Percy Schmeiser update

  You can learn of Percy Schmeiser's efforts via his web site:
  http://www.percyschmeiser.com/

  He is suing to recover his costs as a result of Monsanto's lawsuit.    The Supreme Court "determined that Monsanto's patent is valid, but Schmeiser is not forced to pay Monsanto anything as he did not profit from the presence of Roundup Ready canola in his fields."

  The court date is actually next week - January 23, 2008 - this will be very interesting...
  excerpt from the site below:

  Schmeiser vs Monsanto court date set
  The liability issue of the presence of Roundup Ready canola which contaminated Percy Schmeiser's fields will be addressed in a court date that has been set for January 23, 2008. After a mediation session failed to produce an agreement, the court date was set to address the issue. In a statement released on May 18, 2007, Percy Schmeiser stated that "I am disappointed that mediation did not result in a settlement on the liability issue, yet at the same time optimistic that now that a court date has been set, the matter will finally be addressed."
