I posted a link on that thread, to a very interesting post by Ed Hamilton over at the Ministry of Rum, that probably bears repeating here (so I just repeated it now!). Fascinating, and somewhat alarming discussion of what happens to that bottle of fine rum after you open it and the oxygen starts doing it's thing. Some of the people over there even have the backgrounds to get, like, all technical with the chemistry stuff. Far out. -Randy
