Fix-up

I found this article very interesting, but the style was a mess, to the point where several sentences were impossible to understand, and there were some issues of accuracy vis-a-vis the cited sources. I went through it it and fixed it up, making some minor substantive changes along the way, such as the expansion of a quote. Jalapenos do exist (talk) 10:00, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
