hahah Thats funny, i thought you were making a wisecrack about the charcoal heading to TN to make mash whiskey out of. ANd then i looked at the license plate. haha still funny though.
China? Charcoal? wait something doesnt quite fit here. Don't you have to have large dry acreage burn fields spread out to make charcoal? What did they do dry up the rice patties and burn the stalks? Since when did they get more space over there unless there cooking it on floating barges away from the city with space so scarce? Hmmm you learn something new every day.
