I know, btu this does make me think that coal gasification is a better solution for most of our energy needs. I personally would not be suprised if in 5 years I go to my local wallyworld for gas and get a mix of oil, grains, and coal in my tank.

This is straight from the PETA types who wish the world would eat grain instead of converting grain to meat, notice too that they get in their slams at Wal-Mart.
While I agree that ethanol is not the answer I don't agree with their reasoning.

Intersting thing about corn stalks. I was in Romania last year and noticed that many of the farmers used cornstalks as te source of winter heat and cooking.
