Do the Cambodians actually plant land mines in paddy
fields without the knowledge of the rice farmers? If
yes, then how do the farm hand actually plant the
seedlings while trampling all over the place. They
walk backwards when they plant.

I dont know really, maybe the meteorite did hit a
landmine, but certainly not in a rice field or vice
versa.

Will somebody provide a logical answer? Thanx.
