>>Thanks for your thoughts,
You are way too generous. Meanderings is more like it. <<

Your "Meandering" suggests that you are not in an intellectual desert the way Santayana was...!

Arnold Toynbee's "Study of History"... comes in 6 volumes, long and at times tedious, but there's an abridged version available. <smile>

BTW, I think Buffet owns the Wild Oats food chain. <chuckle>
Agribusiness is very carefully controlled and a staple of the American landscape. I doubt it goes away or it's farming practices, but they could lighten up and rotate a few crows now and again.

>>Wheat prices...., but I do know that there are any number of factors that I continue to enumerate that indicate the pressure will be on price to rise rather than remain stable or fall. If it weren't for all the damn speculators in the market it would be easy to call.<<

I agree, the wheat market is building some kind of event that will raise it's price. This may take a little more time. Speculators keep the market liquid. <smile>

Yup, I'm headed for Mt. Hood and the Timberline Lodge at some point. Don't know exactly when, but Hood and Mt. Rainier are on my list to climb.
