    Inquiring minds want to know..... BUT - unlike some other person on this forum who is both cheesy and easy (Cheasy?) I am not so easily swayed to disclose double super secret stuff.

    uhmm .... how much are you each willing to pony up to get the inside story ????

    She's a merc! I knew it - she's a merc!

    There are a few worse things than being a merc not many, but it makes being cheasy far less onerous...

    I'm a Mercury??? I have neither winged feet nor do I deliver flowers... nor do I own a vehicle manufactured by Ford!! Actually - I'm a Libra... maybe Mercury was hanging around one of my astrological houses at the time of my birth....

    I'm more winey and cheasy...

    I was just reading about boxed wines gaining popularity down under (land of the screw top.) Good wines are being packaged that way now. Because of the airtight bag and spigot, no oxygen reaches the unpoured wine. So unlike an opened bottle, which will oxidize in 1-2 days, the boxes last 4-6 weeks with the last glass as fresh as the first.

    Far cheaper too!

    Aussie boxes that we can find here include Hardys Stamp of Australia and Banrock Station. Californian boxes include Black Box from Napa, Wine Block, and Delicato. DTour is from France. You know, the guys that host d tour d france...

    Has anyone seen these yet? Prices are about $17-24 for 3 liters, as opposed to 750 ml bottles. Quite a deal, if the wine is decent.

    Have you heard of any of this, Tim-O?
