Sometimes I Think I Live in the Future
James Kellerman
We are preparing a seed vault for armageddon.
Descending almost 500 feet under the permafrost, the entrance tunnel to the seed vault is designed to withstand bomb blasts and earthquakes. An automated digital monitoring system controls temperature and provides security akin to a missile silo or Fort Knox. No one person has all the codes for entrance.
The seed vault has started receiving its first seeds. I wouldn't be too unhappy if they forgot the Durian seeds.
