Great story about ebony. A wasteful market is by no means an efficient market.

I agree with a Rueben. But this: “The most uninteresting drive in America.” May indicate you’ve never driven from the Kansas border to Denver on I70. Until you can see the Rockies that is the most barren, flat (albeit slightly uphill) land I’ve ever seen. I’ve only been to Boise once and drove west so I’ll take your word for it being boring on the other side.

But … as I recall, there are actually some lovely huge swaths of plowed agricultural ground in the area—which I like— and the small towns are quite charming. The Idaho towns are … not very. :)
