Default Norway to build Doomsday Planet Vault

Well the Washington Politicians already have their
doomsday vaults why not for seeds? Norway is building a protective vault
to house whatever seeds are now left to protect the diversity should the
world wide seas begin to rise as scientists predict.

Well just as Officer Warhol warned finally some scientists are taking
heed and protecting the grains for future generations in case the worst
does hit, oh mercy! I remember as a kid how delicious some multi variety
of home or farm grown fruits and vegetables tasted now they all appear
to taste and look the same. The Seans have reported collecting multi
Earth specimens for preservation and for possible reseeding of other
planets. With so many planet species vanishing, both animal and plant,
protecting remaining seed stock is a good idea. Well Officer Bert, don't
worry, those great beer grains should be in good hands.

ponder on,

Good thing to preserve some of the old fashioned varieties of
vegetable seeds, the ones that actually tasted good, because in the
future the only vegetables that will be commercially grown will be
genetically engineered to endure on the shelves like plastic, be
colorful, but taste like cardboard! Just like today's ore bought
tomatoes!

We grow lots of hops here in Oregon. Hope they remember to preserve
those seeds!

Correct Commander, for example here in Indiana they send
pickers to detassel hybrid corn so the seeds are sterile and only grow
one season. The store tomatoes and vegetables taste bland, rain forest
large farm bananas in a few years scientists report will disappear, and
fruits like strawberries don't taste right. The oil companies are now
after the corn, oh mercy!

They better, or Officer Bert will throw a fit. And thank
goodness for the protective Seans and their preserving Earth planet
stock, or it will be no Starship beer suds and virgins for us, oh heaven
forbid!

Here's to Oregon hops!

nightbat I thought Bud light was made from seedless hops. I think I'll
send some of Pee-Air's sperm seeds t0 Norway so that the new
generations will have a better chance for survival. Bert
