Title: 'Doomsday' seed vault opens in Norway
Post by: loco on February 27, 2008, 06:59:51 AM
Story Highlights


A vast underground vault storing millions of seeds from around the world took delivery of its first shipment Tuesday.

Dubbed the "Doomsday Vault," the seed bank on a remote island near the Arctic Ocean is considered the ultimate safety net for the world's seed collections, protecting them from a wide range of threats including war, natural disasters, lack of funding or simply poor agricultural management.

I store my seed in a sock at the bottom of my bed.

Just in case anything ever happens to me and scientists need to clone my good self.

A sock doesn't sound like a very safe place at all Mr Aki. Nordic Supermans rectum makes an ideal storage place for ones seed, and he doesn't even charge for the service.

Diesel, I fear the scientists would not be able to find my seed amongst the litres of "Harry Monk" swilling around in Nordic's cavernous colon.

It's like a veritable DNA database down there!

Did not feel a thing. My girlfriend claimed that the cats went a bit mental back home in the Midlands.
