Here in Michigan I am having a dry spell over-all not just WAM's. I have not found a WAM in about three months. Even wheats are running kinda dry.

It comes and goes. I found one in 5 boxes in a row in the first 2 weeks of January, and then went 8 boxes without one.

Before that it had been about 10 boxes without one. Wheats are pretty consistent 13-17 here for the past couple years.

Speaking of dry spells...I just searched a pile of rolls last night & this morning and the only error I found was a minor Greaser. That, a few Canadian cents and one Euro cent were the only interesting things in the whole lot.
