I received a phone message from a reporter with the Washington Times an hour
ago, asking me my opinion on genetically engineered fish being produced in
Massachusetts, allegedly. I don't know anything about such fish; does
anybody know, and could they tell me, in case I talk to this reporter?
Thanks!

While I believe that genetically engineered fish are inevitable (I can think
of one that was engineered to glow) My question is engineered in what way?
Possibly this person was just fishing for a story or trying to stir up
controversy. Genetic engineering is a very broad term and can mean anything
from the completely benign to mermaids ;-)
