The Quest for Knowledge (Treading Through the Info-Muck)

Recently, renowned agricultural commodities analyst (and my dad) John DePutter told me that "our clients tell us they don't need more information. Information is not want they want. Knowledge is." He explained that there's already too much information available, making it difficult and time consuming to isolate what's useful and reliable - and what's not - from the plethora of information available in newspapers, magazines, and most of all, the internet. However, knowledge is still key: it's more important than ever for his clients to gain the knowledge they need to make important decsions, whether they're selling crops or making investments.
