Thats cool. I like history especially the prohibition era.

Actually, we have a fifth of moon shine on it's way from WV right now. I don't know if some of you know what moon shine is but it's homemade grain alcohol so you never know what you'll get. It's usually made from corn or potatoes and it's so strong you have to keep it in a glass jar. Usually around 199 proof but the bad side is that it's easy to drink too much and get alcohol poisoning and sometimes it will be a bad batch and might kill you. You really can't tell a bad batch from a good batch until you drink it! The feeling one gets from it is very euphoric. Not heavy and sloppy like bourbon whiskey and not numb like vodka. It's a big thing in the south. Actually it's just Ethanol and I know a man who converted his car to over to ethanol and raises potatoes to turn into gas for his vehicle.
Yes I have heard of moon shine.
