PENHOOK, Va. (AP) - The Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control says it's seeing a resurgence in illegal liquor making in parts of the state. The agency says it's seized five stills in raids across southwest Virginia in March. Agent Chris Goodman tells The Roanoke Times that other investigations are ongoing. Goodman says the moonshine trade seems to be re-emerging, perhaps because of the tough U.S. economy. The numbers show the agency investigated 22 stills in the fiscal year that ended last June. That's the highest total since a federal crackdown called Operation Lightning Strike in 1999. Twenty-nine people were convicted. The agency says it's making more busts despite having fewer people. Retirements prompted the agency to disband its Illegal Whiskey Unit in 2009.

Thou hast power only to act not over the result thereof. Act thou therefore without prospect of the result and without succcumbing to inaction. The mind acts like an enemy for those who do not control it...Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed better than inaction...Sever the ignorant doubt in your heart with the sword of self-knowledge. Observe your discipline. Arise. The Bhagavad Gita
And smooooo(cough, cough, cough)oooth! (Hack, hack, hack!)

__________________________________________________________ When I lived in hampton VA , moonshine wasn't making any kind of comeback, it was just as popular as marijuana. Good stuff, Goes down smooth as silk lands like and acidic brick. Good stuff.
I got some a couple of years back and posted about it, it was from West Virginia and it was damn good.
