NOTE: With the economy as it is, the HBD is struggling to
meet its meager operating expenses of approximately $3400
per year. If less than half of those currently directly
subscribed to the HBD sent in a mere $5.00, the HBD would
be able to easily meet its annual expenses, with room to
spare for next year. Please consider it.

As always, donors and donations are publicly acknowledged

Subject: Getting rid of malt moths

Recently I've found a large number of moths in my grain, both malt and
flour. I'm told that they're Indian grain moths (or flies), and
clearly they're where they love to be. Take a look at
http://www.lemis.com/grog/Albums/Indian-grain-moth.php for what they
look like.

I can't imagine I'm the first person to run into this problem. How do
I get rid of them? I've been told to fill the containers with carbon
dioxide, but it's not clear how well that will work, especially since
the containers aren't hermetically sealed. Will freezing help?

Subject: HBD Snafus and the like

Greetings, Beerlings! Take me to your lager...

As noticeable in recent Digests, I've moved most of my personal mail
operations off-server to the Google. It's noticeable because a few bits
have slipped through which should have been whacked. This is because, for
some reason, the servers choose not to "listen" to my gmail address for
command and control.

Working on it. Hope to have it resolved shortly. In the meantime, thank
you for your patience...
