Sounds like the problem could easily have occured in transport.  It can get
awfully hot in a truck trailer.  In any event, don't you all think you should
get to the bottom of this kind of thing before posting a business' name?  I
mean, if it does turn out that the trucking company was at fault, you have
already damaged the company's reputation.  You could possible even be sued
for lible.
