Tuesday, Feb 25, the Supreme Court will hear arguments about IN farmer Vernon Hugh Bowman “illegally replicating” by taking seed he had harvested and using it for a subsequent crop the next year. The last para in the article  “Patents for Life” that I read (by George Kimball &Debbie Barker);  But taking a few steps back from the microscope and the lawbooks, they may find that there is a discussion to be had about a much deeper question: the appropriate role of ownership and control over the very elements of life.
