Lisa,

I've heard of the impending doom coming to the world of bananas.

I sometimes see very small banana-like fruits (maybe at Trader  
Joe's!).  I suppose they are one of those other seldom-heard-of  
varieties of bananas.  Maybe organic ones!

Anyway, I can only guess what it would take to grow a banana tree  
north of the tropics.
