    Yeah, wool used to reign supreme. Back at the end of the century before last, just before the large Aussie sheep stations came on line, our wool was fetching $65/kg equivalent. Back then if you wanted to be warm, wool was the only option. That's why sheep farmers used to walk the fencelines picking the wool stuck on the barbed wire off and sticking it in their pockets. It was just worth so much.
