I am ready to hit the local market and start stockpiling.

This is possibly the worst news I can get. I'll admit it, I might need a step program to get me off my addiction to coffee.

According to a story in Bloomberg.com, if somebody doesn't start growing a lot of coffee very soon, there will be a lot of stressed out people running around looking for a cocoa bean 'fix'.

Rising consumption world-wide, and a few crappy growing seasons has left a coffee-growing deficit of 3.5 million bags. Brazil is doing it's best, but why are they the only coffee country?

Now is the time for an enterprising farmer to step up and start to fill this void. I don't know who, and I don't know where.

I can't have all the answers until I have my sixth cup of coffee for the day.
