The Doctor nodded at the vast field of green before them. "It happened not long past your time. Some idiot thought it would save money to introduce genetically modified grass that was resistant to pesticides, it cross-pollinated to other plant species and a super weed smothered the park."
"So they replaced everything with fakes?"
Jack snorted derisively. "I don't know what they were thinking. Artificial grass is a nightmare for friction burns."

Interestingly enough, Monsanto are responsible for a range of
Roundup Readymodified plants and, while they sold the division off years back, they're also the inventors of Astro-Turf. I wonder if perhaps they have other interests at heart — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 29.09.2007 20:48 AEST |

One of those things you generally don't admit to knowing. A co-worker once arrived at work limping. When asked why, he replied that he had friction burns on top of his feet. He never did live that down — via LiveJournal

It really isn't a great leap in speculation, is it? Especially when you consider that Monsanto invented Astro-Turf, have since sold the division off, but an interesting thought none the less — via LiveJournal
