No I replied to a post that used a fossil fuel use to energy gained ratio, big difference. Especially considering the info I used was not my own words. And beyond that I am not posting pro-ethanol info, if you noticed my second post to that guy it painted an even more negative light than the first one, which was posted to dispel his 1 gallon of fossil fuel to 13 gallons of ethanol.

From Post #12:
Another way to look at the energy balance is to look at the fossil energy ratio.
I was trying to discourage the use of such a ratio as I believe it is misleading.

You chose to copy and post those words. That was what I was addressing.

I have not ever claimed you were. But I believe comparisons of only fossil fuel and not total energy input are misleading and I don't believe either should be used.
