...before we go there, a word about producer prices. These are the prices of the stuff that manufacturers, processors and other value-adders pass on to retailers. (Retailers then add their own value (stores, sales help, etc.), at which point the Producer Price Index becomes the Consumer Price Index, which measures what we pay for the stuff.) In other words, the PPI is mostly about manufacturing, as well as basic stuff like food and energy - it?s supposed to spot inflation before it hits the stores...
...wouldn't sell. I see Himalayan piles of remaindered books. Anything new and juicy in the book would be instantly picked up and reported by the media even before publication. Why would people spend $30 or $35 for the book, when they'd have the only good stuff immediately, from the papers and the evening news...

...County, home to at least 250 factory dairy farms called CAFOs, for confined-animal feeding operations. The CAFOs milk as many as 2,000 cows a day, and the county has about 110,000 dairy cows that produce an estimated 1.8 million tons of cow poop a year. The stuff has got into the North Bosque and its tributary streams, which feed into Lake Waco, the drinking-water source for the city of Waco. The local water in Erath County shows increasing levels of nitrates, ammonia and fecal coliform bacteria. A farmer hired an independent water-monitoring firm and learned...
