Cris Fellows 10/24/2017 7:10 PMI just watched the World According to Monsanto. Disturbing to say the least. But I decided afterwards to do a simple Google search into stock ownership. My retirement fund company, Vanguard, is the largest stockholder. I was already going to fashion a letter to the president of the hospital that I work for, advocating for a policy regarding new vehicle acquisition to be electric, and to stop the chemical spraying of grounds. This is the worst though. I will need to put some thought into this. -
