Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Maggots are valuable and delicate, and accordingly receive more consideration in transit than commuters to London, I discovered from Comart Europa International, an SPD subsidiary, which took two tons of them in sealed breeding boxes from Nottinghamshire to Holland. The little dears had to be preserved at precisely 0"C to keep them alive but inert. London commuters also remain alive but inert, but solely through their superior stamina.

Maggots must have hidden charms because the customer happily paid for the hire of a large reefer to carry a small load of things that most people would stamp on.
