more major media discovers the coffee crisis

just when you long-time readers thought it was safe to come back! that finally you would be free of my endless tales from the coffee crisis -- the problems caused around the globe and in our hemisphere by the world depression in coffee prices.

finally this story is breaking out of the blogs and the back of the commodities pages. . .first peter fritsch of the wall st. journal wrote a piece, and slowly the story is leaking into other media. if you have a fast connection, or some patience for the large images and voiceover, check out this fairly decent summation of the situation at msnbc. it's a lengthy article -- but worthwhile, sobering, and thought-provoking.
