I want to be a farmer.
Is there a place for me in YCombinator?
(p.s. I have several other follow up questions I'd love to ask if you entertain me with a response)

We are the best in the world at helping people be some things, but probably not that :(
If you were genuinely interested -- there's quite a few reasons why YC is appealing but ultimately one thing sticks out.
Farming has a lot of potential for control and subsequently, abuse. You said in a recent blog post -- if I can grow the product either better or cheaper (talking about food/produce), I'll win. With current technologies and my background and experience it seems very likely I will be successful.
YC is one of very few organizations that I trust to assist and embrace the humanitarian responsibility of being a potential global leader.
In a nutshell.
Right now I'm only interested in being a farmer, but I'm a technologist at heart and would love to hear about your product.
