I just wonder what point you're making, exactly. Are you arguing that a fabricated gene is natural, or that fabricating that gene for an organism is somehow different than GMO (which means genetically modified organism...)?

I do appreciate the attitude that allows folks to split hairs. It is what allows "organic" farmers to use synthetic fertilizers and pesticides...after all, they're fabricated from isolated chemical components of naturally-occuring substances. Without the ability to effectively dissemble, where would our industries be.

Edit: Just clearing it up a bit.
