I don't know about the rest of you, but I have lost all confidence in the vault. I'm not going to put much faith in that thing saving us

Who builds a doomsday vault that can't stand a rise in the water table?

Wouldn't one expect this to be a possible, if not probable consequence of a global nuclear war? Realizing the likelyhood of nuclear winter in the long run, wouldn't you also,plan for the possibility that there could be an initial spike in terperatures depending on where the strike had occurred?

The seeds didn't get wet, some water just got in the building. They keep the seeds stored under very cold temperatures from what I've read (one reason to put it in the artic) and the water that did make it into that area just froze and was scraped away.

If water can get in, radiation can get in.

A flooded seed vault means one thing: sprouts
I need those sprouts.

They aren't growing things in the vault. They are preserving seeds so if a species dies out or there is some sort of mass extinction there is a backup.

Put the seeds in condoms and tie a knot. Problem solved.

Sounds like a stupid idea to even have it.

We live in a time when you can build a doomsday vault out of screen doors, and these jerk offs still mess it up.

Flex Seal will fix it

Do people live in the vault?
If doomsday wipes out all the plants won't it wipe out the people?
Who's gonna plant this shite?
