Dear Maintainers,

Is there a way to import futures prices from yahoo or from 
finance.yahoo.com?

yahooSeries("IBM") gives data for IBM

For light crude delivery in March 2009 traded on NYMEX, the ticker 
CLH09.NYM can be used to get data from finance.yahoo.com

yahooSeries("CLH09.NYM") currently doesn't provide any data, though the 
data is available at http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=CLH09.NYM
