Big Food
“Another reason to think SMALL: Big Food - http://nyti.ms/5XYMAe”Microbrewing is doing well. Farmers markets likewise. Urban sprawl food deserts will suffer as long as lazy minds allow them to do so.Big food depends on monocroping, a recipe for disaster.

Libya Revolt Spreads as Qaddafi Tightens Grip in Capital
“Latest update from inside #Libya: Revolt Spreads as Qaddafi Tightens Grip in Capital - http://nyti.ms/dLK2Ec”The question is: Will it get to civil war?Typically not. The President for life gets on a plane out and the guard forces try to disperse as bandits.He may persist until the embargo tightens. I assume that the foreign exchange is already in Switzerland. The mercenaries may turn on him when the local hard currency runs low.
