Just a suggestion. Don’t forget the demon seed.
Send the Clintons down there...
Sounds like a good idea.
a pretty rational idea, actually, if government workers didnt actually get to plan the facility itself.
I assume this group of scientists does not believe in global warming.
Great point. Love it.
...do you get the idea that they know something we don’t? Is there an asteroid headed our way or something?
No, they believe in climate change. Global warming is passe at this point. Get with it, man.
With coming climatic changes, higher food prices, and expanding markets for biofuels, our best available options for progress, if not survival, will be in what we have conserved and studied against all thinkable predictions.
Why? If globle warming and hilary care is going to destroy us all, what the hell do we seeds for?
Statistically speaking, yes, there are asteroid strikes in our planet's future.
But did they gather any Wildwood Weed seeds?
All good things gotta come to an end,
And it’s the same with the wildwood weed.
One day this feller from Washington came by,
And he spied it and turned white as a sheet.
Then they dug and they burned,
And they burned and they dug,
And they killed all our cute little weeds.
Then they drove away,
We just smiled and waved ..........
Sittin’ there on that sack of seeds!
Hopefully so that we won't have to go back through the 'hunter-gatherer' stage again.
"Genetic evidence suggests that Human population size fell to about 10,000 adults between 50 and 100 thousand years ago."

I'd hate to see some "Twilight Zone" ending to this where the Brave New World has all the seed it needs, but no soil to grow it in.

It’s just a matter of time that we get smacked real hard.
No-one that will know where the seeds are will survive anyway.
For example: Pick any 100 people in every city in the world...I expect not one will even know there is a seed vault much less where it's located.
BTW, I have my own seed, fertlizer and pesticide vault.
Ah, but the mighty Goracle, who is wise beyond measure, says that the seeds will be flooded out soon. (sarcasm -for the record)
Maybe Yellowstone really is gonna explode?
I am really glad that seeds that are not artificially, genetically altered are being protected somewhere.
