And the problem we've had with wheat.  We stay one
season away from a total wheat blight.  Botanists
have been hybridizing virus-resistant wheat as fast
as they can for *years* because the virus mutates
so fast, last year's crop is susceptible this year.

Won't last.  Corporate interests will notice, get
involved, and the shelters will suffer.  :<   Soon
the Japanese will develop an instant cat...just add
