If you’re unfamiliar with the story of the P-38 found frozen in the Artic then it’s time you read Exhuming the Glacier Girl for a fantastic story.

The Washington Post is carrying an article A Culinary and Cultural Staple in Crisis which offers a bit more information on the tortillas crisis in Mexico and the link with not only ethanol but also brokers in Mexico and trade agreements made under the former leftisit president allowing the exporting of corn from Mexico.
