Ethanol may be best left to its time honored use.....

First off, nice to see you post, Craig!

The use of corn for ethanol is impacting the cost of food as well! Beef, pork and chicken farmers will have to pay more for feed.

The cost of corn will go up as demand goes up, since producers will have more market options.

There will be less surplus corn available for Third World countries.

The "greenies" forgot about the law of unintended consequences.
