Default borer resistant squish

also named in that thread were rumbo squash
which i've never heard of and haven't grown.

the butternut or buttercup squash we grow
here are somewhat resistant in that they may
get borer damage but they will keep going.
a few of the plants may die, but not all.

now that we've got cross-breeds and seeds
harvested from several years they seem to
be resistant enough.
