Preventing corn cross-pollination. That’s why the farmers de-tassle the corn. Used to be summer work for thousands of Midwestern kids. Maybe still is today.
I was a city boy, but medical school was in the Midwest. Got to learn about stuff like that.
And walking the beans.
Oh, and smartweed. I dunno what’s so smart about it, guess there’s a plant smarter than me.

Points well taken, Doug. We just finished our 50th med school reunion this weekend and had remembrances last night at dinner from each of the 32 surviving classmates who returned. What stood out to me, amongst the horrific and sometimes humorous stories we told about our various rotations, is how much we helped each other, like the Band of Brothers in WWII, except that nobody got killed!
That is beautiful. Thanks for sharing that.
Clever person!
