It would appear that due to skyrocketing gasoline prices that competition from refrigerated freight could solve increasing costs of living and stabilize the economy. Am I looking at this with an uneducated view? Seems that quick transportation and direct lines, already in place could help stabilize costs for both the producer and customer. Example poultry products with a short shelf life (13 days) from farm to customer. Thanks for your consideration. J.R. Cotta 4 E Loch Nairn Road, Houston' DE 19954
