Just to make it clear, cucmubers were not responsible for the e. coli outbreak.

Meanwhile, NPO's in Japan are donating kids' school desks and chairs to the schools districts that were affected by the tsunami because the government isn't bothered to help them refurnish the schools.

Well, that's money well spent.

The bees could be a problem, but there are lots of other animals that pollinate, like humming birds. So to legs-san, you have to think out of the box more.

Maybe Germany will blame them next for the E.Coli problem?

Sounds Interesting. But in my mind plays "Rejoice in the Sun" and "Silent Running" now.
Hope they can get it too work and "Silent Running" was a great movie.

Good, as it may soon be the only place to grow them without plutonium, uranium, cesium, iodine, strontium, etc.
