So I think about it and that's as far as I get.
Well, I like that thinking and certainly encourage you. From the various forums where I read the histories you detail I find myself wanting more--have often thought of saving them for my own personal use but would love to buy a book where the information is all there in one place.

For instance the other day I was looking up the history of "Lucky Cross" tomato because I had just picked my first beauty of the year. You mentioned that a tomato called "Tad" was used in it's conception it's that kind of information that will be lost unless it's written down and not many people have the expertise to do so. I appreciate you so generously sharing your knowledge. Someday when my teenage daughter thinks gardening might be a worthwhile pursuit I'd like her to have access to the history that you can impart. Thank you.
