Seed vault video.

Many thanks for that; the Seed Saver's Exchange has contributed to the
Svalbard (Sp?) vault, so possibly some of my seeds are in there now. Nice
thought, though I hope it isn't needed.
The operators kind of resist the "doomsday" aspect; more important is a
good source for genetic research and breeding material.
A criticism of SSE's involvement has been that the Evil Empire can request
material and perhaps add their own patented frankengenes. Doesn't bother me
much in the grand scheme of things.
