But there are actual funds that exist to put together opportunities to predict what i feel like i should back up for a minute for the nonwine folks in the ring. For the way that wine is made and sold, its harvested, its created, its made into wine and it is put into barrels and its put away for a really long time. So that creates a really effective futures market. You know you have this product. You dont know at the time it is fantastic or not and do much later on when comes out of those barrels and is put into bottles and jeff either a fabulous vintage or maybe a mediocre vintage.

There is lincoln on one end, he was his private secretary, lived in the white house for every war years. So much of what we know about lincoln comes from hays time with him. He served on the mckinley as well and was secretary of state for teddy roosevelt, so you have these iconic bookends in american history, and then when you look deeper, you realize all the chapters in between, from the civil war to the beginning of the 20thcentury, he is a presence in every one of those chapters. His fingerprints are on the pages. In many cases, he has written those ....
