FACTOID #53: If you thought Antarctica was inhospitable, think again - its land area is only ninety-eight percent ice. Reassuringly, the other 2% is categorised as "barren rock".
GAK was established in 1995 by the Gödöllõ University of Agriculture (biggest agricultural university in Hungary) as well as by the major agricultural production companies in Hungary.
The main idea behind the establishment of GAK was to develop a so called umbrella type of organisation that is capable of bridging the gap between university research, development, and the technical implementation and utilisation of the scientific results, in other words, maintaining the transfer of know-how and technology.
GAK was also established to fulfil certain non-profit activities that facilitate the development of the agro-food sector and the life of people living in the countryside.
Like Tribbles or Transformers, Gak is one of those odd things that are born and nurtured on TV before oozing through the tube into three-dimensional reality.
In fact, Gak may also be as virulent among adolescents as that fire-breathing, PBS-shilling purple doofus, Barney, is among tots.
Besides designer drugs, Gak is one of the few substances on earth invented by scientists driven neither by the joys of pure research or strict utilitarian goals (excluding the bottom line, that is).
