OK, I am *not* trying to start a big argument about this, but I am going to comment. It seems that a crucial part of heirloom tomatoes is their history...who brought them from where and when is a big deal. So, if the above is true, then the name of the University is important, isn't it? Perhaps it is a detail, but with heirlooms it seems that details are important. Now I certainly may be wrong, it's happened once or twice before. Catherine. I always like to have correct information.
