Hey folks, Thanks for your input on & off the list.

To be clear, I am not a reseller of honey.  I am down to 3 hives now and 
decided to leave the bees a little extra this year.  I pulled enough 
to 'pay' my bee-landlords but I have gotten my friends back in clover 
country to expect some of "...that wonderful blackberry honey" every 
holiday.

Sounds like friend to friend prices range from one to two dollars per 
pound in bulk.  (To me, Sixty pounds is a lot to BUY).  

Related subject - I tried a local family's 'Fireweed' honey out of a 
plastic-lined drum.  It tastes great - but, I am pretty sure it's from 
their 2005 crop.  Does Fireweed just keep better than other honeys?

I wonder - how much honey IS in storage around North America?
