Mom and Pop Groceries has just dispatched a year's supply of groceries to the government of the Central Antarctic Republic. Payment of $225.000 will be made one year hence after the shipment arrives by snow train. Unfortunately, there is a good chance of a coup d'tat in which case the new government will not pay.
