It's not our fault!

So I guess retailers in Europe are having a difficult time getting Playstation 2s. It turns out that everyday reasons like "explosions at factories" or "we are trying to build our new product, so forget you" are not the real reasons.

According to this story the real reason is simple shipping problems and apparently the Suez Canal is to blame. You know, I remember learning about the Suez Canal in geography, but I couldn't tell you where it is...without looking it up on google...it's the waterway linking the Mediterranean to the Gulf of Suez and then to the Red Sea.

The story just struck me because I don't think I've read or heard the words "Suez Canal" since eighth grade geography.
