Nice to see your new blog. I'm in Nebraska this week, on our farm, and one of my projects is trying to trace the links between it and the global economy. About to head to the Greenwood Coop to see where its managers send our corn, then planning to visit some of the towns in central Nebraska that have seen big meatpacking plants arrive (and many Mexican immigrants) in the last 15 years or so. So you've taken down your global heartland blog? Can I still access your postings there? And what's this trip you're doing now all about? cheers, Julie Hi Toby! Nice to see your new blog.
