...Fear. On the wheat plains of Greece, Anestis Canalis, a walleyed voyeur (Anestis Vlachos), goes prowling along a lovers' lane. Peering through a car window, he sees a couple entwined. The woman spots him and shrieks. As Anestis gropes his way in flight through the grain, the man shouts after him: "I know who you are, you sex-starved bastard...
...farms. While the tractor remains the mainstay-some 5,000,000 are in use on today's farms-the agricultural arsenal also includes 880,000 grain combines, 775,000 hay balers, 655,000 corn pickers and shelters.

The insect, he discovered, was not particularly fond of corn, preferring the sap of barley, wheat and oat plants during winter and wild grasses in the summer. But while moving from its winter-to summer-plant hosts, the plant hopper frequently plunged its stylet into young corn seedlings in the mistaken belief that they were wild grasses. In the process, the corn-killing viruses thriving...
