"CHICAGO (Reuters) - Late blight, which caused the Irish Potato Famine of the 1840s and 1850s, is killing potato and tomato plants in home gardens from Maine to Ohio and threatening commercial and organic farms, U.S. plant scientists said on Friday.

.....This year's cool, wet weather created perfect conditions for the disease."
But..but wasn't global warming supposed to cause crops to fail and widespread famine?
Someone screwed up....
