Wouldn't you be too if you had sand in your vagina?

(I'm sorry, but that was the perfect setup....)

E85 is not that much cheaper than gasoline. Does it greatly reduce CO2 output? HELL NO. I think it's a joke. All this corn that could be used for food production is being wasted.

I agree that there likely is a collusion among oil companies. They want the prices to be high. It's as close to racketeering as you can get without violating RICO.

Whoever came up with the idea of using ethanol as fuel must have had too much of it in their bloodstream at the moment. Maybe we need a car that runs on bullshit, because there's plenty of that going around. :lol:

You can make fuel from algae more efficiently than you can from corn, and algae consumes far more CO2. This corn bullshit is just propaganda from companies that invested in it.

Well, with the new Energy Bill waiting to pass the House of Representatives, there are more provisions that would set penalties for gasoline price-gouging and would give the government new powers to investigate oil companies' pricing.

This is the first step in heading the right direction.

Now if we could cut our need for foreign oil and get it off shore instead.

Last part is a joke.

Jatropha is a better biofuel source than corn. It has something like 10 times the amount of energy in it than corn does and would probably be the crop of choice for energy farms if they ever became a huge reality in America.
