You've put your finger on a law of oil economics.

Price increase take effect immediately. Price decreases take effect
only when cheaper oil makes its way through the pipeline.


I gather that much of the US Coffee supply was in warehouses
in New Orleans.

Take coffee. New Orleans is the nation's second-largest port for
incoming coffee shipments. But redirecting those shipments doesn't
solve all the problems, because the city is also a major coffee
production center.

About a quarter of the entire U.S. stock of unprocessed coffee is
stored in New Orleans. More than half of the Folger's and Millstone
brand coffees sold by Procter & Gamble Co. are made at two plants in
New Orleans.

Great hate!, now I gotten go back Wal-Mart. I really hate that big store.
However, since it seems dish soap had not been included on my
shopping list, and my dishwasher went on the blink months ago
any chance that all dish soap chemicals were stored in New Orleans ?
well the answer is NO!. and Nope I am not and will not fix it
one more time. I have already replaced two seals on one obtuse door,
besides, it was a darn noisy contra affair, bu it di do dishes.

Anyway, the appliance distributor also indicated that we will not and
can not order any more of these seals, I told him, that I hate green eggs
with ham.

Search on the Net for parts. Make & model number probably
on the paperwork inside the door (take the cover off)
A rotating seal? Measure it & call or visit your local
bearing supply house.
Non-rotating? Always install with some plumber's putty too G.
Or make your own.

What shipping? Southern RR has lost 1.5 miles of rail across that
big lake and they are now searching for the rail in the lake. The
bridge is ok but no track to run on. Of course the rail yard is about
6ft under water right now.

For those who might not know much about the tobacco industry, pipe tobaccos
very often will contain a tobacco known as Perique. It is used to slow
down the burning rate of the tobacco and give it that strong spicy taste or
bite. It has some kinship with Tabasco. The only place it is grown is in
one area of Louisiana.

I wonder if those fields survived?
