So, Billy, the enjoyment of spending time browsing seed and catalogs during winter, or a spinner rack full of cool herbs veggie and flower seeds at the nursery, will be supplanted (urp!) by a computer? Just like newspapers, seed racks will be a relic of a past era, and I'll be out of a job? Think of those botanical illustrators that will be thrown out of work, the copywriters who will be selling violets on the street corner, the lack of personal interaction with the seed lady as she goes about her job of making sure There Are No Outs during the spring frenzy--it's a conspiracy, I tell you. But I find the prospect of cannibalistic voles (in my case) very tantalizing, I must admit.
