Where he says that the GMO scientists are making massive changes instantly, he's totally wrong. A typical plant has a genome of billions of DNA bases, which might be 40,000 different genes. In nature, every generation of plants has a few genes different from its parent plants. That's the nature of sexual reproduction, which is the common way that plants reproduce - think of flowers that become seeds. Besides that, there are always some mutations, which is when genes change all by themselves. I guarantee that you and I each have a few genes which are different from genes in both out parents. Also, before there were any GMO plants in existence, plant breeders used ways to introduce new genes, like exposing a plant to gamma rays, or to certain chemicals. That created hundreds of new genes at random and the big work of breeding was selecting the offspring plants that had some desirable traits and rejecting the plants with poor or useless traits. What the modern technique allows is changing one gene at a time, selecting that gene to be useful, and checking that it produces the trait we wanted and expected, but not other traits. If you talk about evolution being slow, you are right. Darwin explained why evolution works slowly. But Darwin knew that human breeders could speed it up by hundreds of times using artificial selection. GMO plants are an example of that beyond Darwin's experience, but nowhere is there evidence that artificial means of changing genes has any special problem.
Fine video sir, I hope your business are doing well because it sounds like you'll have to put your money on some engine overhaul pretty soon. The engines compression must be down low like the dancer girls on a nightclub after midnight. I whish you all the best greetings from Sweden.
That is my Uncle for sure, He and my dad Tony would often jam out on the guitar like this in the day. Big thank you for this, just got off the blower to him looking forward to the podcast interview. My Dad had a great story of the Isle of White festival, he went and saw Hendricks there did not remember any of it because he had taken too many things. :p
great piece really enjoyed the conversation i was at the last stonehenge festival in 1984 ive had lots of acid trips and lived in mid wales for a time and although i was from a younger set than the julie people i did know one of the guys who was a supplier for julie acid in birmingham when i was aquainted with him he had already a long time since served his time as he was one of the many who were rolled up and busted in the aftermath
Hi Thom, Thanks for the kind comment about the podcast. I do want to document your era too - might you be interesting in chatting about it? Kind regards Tom
Hi Coleman Great to hear you enjoy the video. I sold the 1490 to my neighbour - sad about it in a way, but he has a use for it and it was just standing in the yard. The video lives on Kind regards Tom
Removing, or should I say, not removing, the pillars has to be all about the cost. I seem to remember it would have meant building a complete new stand.
I run a 1394 on work and i have to say that Machine is a wonder On a cold day i glow it for mabye 10 sec (it dosent need more) and i just crank it over for mabye 2 sec and let it go and it Does Strugle allitle bit now when its cold but it Just Get going No mather what it wants to run! i have never had any mager brake down or any Mager parts braking its been running now for almost 33 years and we have never changed the turbo Pistons Crank shaft Or anything to do with the engien :D
Hello! The last time I viewed your channel you had a small farm with sheep etc. Has that gone now? How are you getting on with growing potatoes (and everything else) since then? Do you get compost material in from elsewhere - e.g. woodchip or seaweed etc.?
YOUR 1490 ENGINE NEEDS A RE-BUILD AS THE BORES ARE GLAZED & ALSO THE SMALL END BEARING IS GONE ON A CON-ROD AS YOU HEAR IT KNOCKING. LACKAGE OF CHANGING OIL REGULAR & NOT GIVING IT HARD WORK HAS RUINED THE ENGINE. WHAT A WASTE!!!
Had you still got " summer " diesel in this , it,s slightly thicker , & does this in winter , could be an idea to change all fuel filter elements , & as the person below says , there is an excess fuel tap underneath the injector pump on most of these D.B. engines , have a look , these were made right up in a ravine in the Pennines , I,m sure it got very cold in winter , so as the person below also says , check out your thermostart device , it,s probably burnt out , & doing nothing ! It can pass electrical power but still not "open " & burn fuel , be careful , if it works it resembles a little flamethrower ! I like the old D.B.,s , Best Regards .
Needed to Rotovate first to give a fine tilt, then you would have a smooth soil for planting, The ridger is a Twose" usually its a scuffle" but someone has changed it to a spud ridger, Would be more easy for you to get a fergi planter, Good luck,.
I have a 1394 tractors a beast I had s block heater installed I use it because winters are cold here she fired off a lot easier then that. Let her warm up a little treat her a little better maybe she'll be nicer to you haha
COLD? -1C? here its nice with -20 and the MF 35 starts perfect without heating and also the 4WD Zetor 6745 from -79 does too... no need to crank so much for those farmtoys.. :) but still, nice video. :)
