Silly question, the answer is obvious. He should read this <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-03-26/raise-a-glass-of-scottish-wine-to-global-climate-changes.html" rel="nofollow"> Bloomberg article</a> "Raise a Glass of Scottish Wine to Global Climate Changes" from 26 March this year. It covers a lot of the issues that went over Anthony's head or were beyond his comprehension.<br /><br />In the comments below the Bloomberg article, it's got the a couple of illiterati posting their usual rubbish. They totally missed the opportunity to ask the question: How many people does it take to drink a bottle of Scottish wine? Ans: Four. Two to pin the drinker to the ground and the fourth to pour the wine down his throat. h/t to the Roman historian, Suetonius aka Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, commenting on English wine in his lost work, The Physical Defects of Mankind.
