Nice find..

Not my thing but still looks interesting.. will have to check this out at lunch!  It seems pretty good quality from the 5 min I could watch before the kids got me.

Chris

This is an amazing piece that

This is an amazing piece that really illustrates what the inner workings of a grain elevator are, or were.  As far as the quality goes, there was none better than the National Film Board of Canada for this type of documentary.  Probably why they have 70 Oscar nominations and a dozen wins!
