Brings up a point that hits close to home, anybody got a favorite hand-cranked grain mill?

JHK: Get some kind of a
 hand-cranked home grain mill. Personally, I think
it is indeed a good idea to lay in a supply of beans, lentils, rice, oats,
other grains and don't forget salt, boullion (soups can sustain us with any
number of ingredients), dried onion flakes, spices (chilies and curries
especially). Our just-in-time, three-day's-worth-of-inventory supermarket
system is very susceptible to disruption. And we're very far from
establishing workable local food networks in this country.
