Man's Locust Farm Worries Neighbors

61-year-old Li Shuqi is only raising one of the ten plagues of Egypt but from the fuss his neighbors are raising you'd think he was working on all ten. Li has spent the last three years raising locusts. He has about two millions locusts living in five locust houses and sells them to Beijing restaurants where they are considered a delicacy. Li says, "My neighbours are constantly keeping an eye on my locust fields and checking the security of the meshes that prevent them from escaping."

Serious problem...

"61-year-old Li Shuqi is only raising one of the ten plagues of Egypt but from the fuss his neighbors are raising you'd think he was working on all ten."

I can't really say that I blame them -- if they are farmers those locusts could very easily destroy their entire livelihood, and I doubt that there would be much in the way of legal recourse for these guys. That would be like if you owned a datacenter and the upstairs neighbors decided to install a swimming pool. These people definitely have a right to be leery.

Delightful Doom?!
