LOL "considered" isn't the same thing as truly being it. The Black Sea States export wheat too. The US isn't the only wheat exporters in the world. Nor are we the only country exporting corn.
Look at it this way. If you buy a new farm truck and the salesman tells you it's made in America you would call him a liar because you know that some of the components, like the parts of the electrical system came from for an off shore source. Well, if we import beef and milk and other foods then we are not feeding ourselves, much less the world.
It amuses me that the GMO guys start making claims that are not true trying to defend what they claim as safe and if you don't believe it they resort to name calling. Now the really funny part is that they are taking the word of the chemical and seed companies that this stuff is safe when they have a very poor track record if you bother to look back just the last 30 years or so. Lots of other stuff that they claimed as being safe that is now banned. I don't trust them. I don't want a study done by a university that also got a huge donation from the chemical company that produced the product being tested. Or a study done by someone being paid by the company to do the study. On the former the school is not going to kill that goose that laid that gold egg (heck look at the cheating they do keep player eligible to play, there are no ethics in education), on the paid study all the company has to do is cancel and the result belong to them, they never have to release the findings. That's why I'm not for or against them. Both sides studies are suspect. And with the way things are right now it will only be time that really tells.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power.
