[NHCOLL-L:2517] Re: Suppliers of ethanol

[Gene Hall]

Jess,

We use Aaper Alcohol and Chemicals, PO Box 339, Shelbyville, 
KY  40066-0339.  Ph# 502-633-0650, FAX 502-633-0685. Toll free outside of 
KY 1-800-456-1017.

In fall 2004 a 55 gallon drum of pure ethyl alcohol cost $241.45. We had to 
pay $82.97 for freight to get it here.

Hope that helps.

Gene
