Those Folks Down the Hall. You know, the ones who let you borrow their portable phone, or use their bathroom, or zip up your dress, or have quarters for laundry. The ones you run into on the stairs or waiting for the elevator who you have those great 1 minute conversations with. So many morning and afternoons and late nights made much more awesome because...

Currency devaluation and the elimination of agricultural subsidies doubled and quadrupled fertilizer prices, according to a study by the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Farmers couldn't borrow, because short-term interest rates in rural areas hit 100%. Yields fell, but thanks to global oversupply and greedy middlemen, farmers were often paid less for what they could grow. Famine remains a persistent threat for 40% of the country...
