You are absolutely right on this one Doug. The perceived "shortages"
and "shortfalls" are totally bogus - it's a speculator's market and
it's driving the economy into the dumpster along the way.

It's really no different than the stock market. The nightly news says "IBM
announced lower-than-expected earnings and the DJIA responded by losing 300
points". Who's dumb enough to think that by "investors", they mean people
like you and I? It's the same kind of institutional investors who move the
prices of oil, orange juice and pork.
