I hadn't, and so I called loony, who looked it up on the website and posted it (story), definitely the first specific news story ever posted on this site where the credit could have been thanks mom.

Link of the Day: Thieves Steal 26,417 Gallons Of Brandy. Thanks DNapalm. Round up the usual suspects (they can't have gotten far!).
