if it was in a tanker truck, it wasn't worth drinking anyway...probably something crappy like johnny walker or walmart brand.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Chivas Brothers workers flush away tons of whisky,
http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/daily-buzz/gaffe-week-chivas-brothers-workers-flush-away-tons-132045372.html

The company won't give exact figures, but reports on different outlets indicate anywhere from 5,000 to 18,000 litres went to waste. When The Spirit Business asked, Chivas Brothers representatives said it wasn't as much as 18,000. Even if it was only 5,000 litres, that's still more than 4,400 'forties.'

Reminds me of a story my wife told me about his Italian grandfather. He was a wine producer and the town mayor never bought his wine because he didn't like how it tasted. Something about poor quality. He only bought wine from his competitor in the village. This always made the grandfather smile.

So one day when the grandfather was once again filling the competitors tank with a regular delivery of his own wine, he saw the mayor walk in the shop. He went quickly hiding to not break the poor guys illusions :)
