OT..Trading/Beer/Ethanol connection...........They discussed this on CNBC yesterday but I didn't want to waste space on the board mentioning it. However, I figure today it'll be alright.

With the increasing usage of ethanol, more farmers are changing the crops they plant to corn to take advantage of it's increased price. This include barley (which the price for it is pretty constant). As it's supply is diminished it's cost will start to increase this year. That means your beer and whiskey could possibly be going up. Then what's a VMC investor supposed to drown his/hers sorrows with on days like today?
