| In a past life, I worked for a comapny that owned a wine and spirits distributor. The sale of spirts actually went up in difficult economic times. It was a almost a perfect 1:1 correlation. | | | I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it. | |

I should still have a copy of the Washington Post article and will send it to you if you want to have another copy. Just PM me with your contact info and I'll send it out to you.

| Yes, I was joking. But then again, if I had purchased the 1982 Chateau Mouton-Routhchild Pauillac when released, it would have cost about $38. Now it is about $1800. | | | |
