Great! so when our millitary planes are dropping out of the sky over Afghanistan it wont be because of shoulder fired surface to air missiles at it but because of our millitary shooting itself int he foot. Our own idiocy when it comes to trying to make the planet a “greener place” will come back to haunt us.

Exactly.All diesel fuels "gel" in cold weather,as I'm learning from various literature about my new car.I've read that jet fuel and diesel fuel are almost identical.If true,one would think that "gelling" would be of particular concern for aircraft in general and military aircraft in particular.

Forget the greener place.

Look at the thousands of companies, the hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs being created. Look at using our corn crop for best uses with hundreds of food products, animal feed products, pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, plastics, and fuel too, instead of just feeding it to hogs.

Look at making hundreds or thousands of valuable products from garbage, sewage, animal manures, nutrient rich run off from farm fields, all kinds of wood wastes, industrial wastes, paper company black liquor, heck even road kill.

The incoming Age of Bio Technology is an exciting time to live in.
