I think it was Wednesday night, and there was a bit of dark-grey humour
about Tabasco Sauce futures going up. And then there was a sudden
silence as we recalled a TV program where somebody had visited the
factory (Lloyd Grosman?).

There really is only one factory, and the stuff sits in vats for several
weeks, maturing.

Jim, can you imagine a band of modern day pirates boarding a ship in
Mid-Atlantic because it has the only Tabasco sauce left?
