Ethanol sets a lot of people apart. In the later stages of interest it even gets people kicked from public buildings such as the City Library and from quasi-public areas such as the Mall.
OK, nice bio, now where in the hell was the beef????????????
And the drinkers! What a waste of good alcohol!
Of course he is right.
A suggestion for this "scientist" at Berkley - go back to Poland and improve the environment there.
Its obvious he is a tool of BIG oil and their stance is that any competition of any type that reduces our dependence on petroleum from Saudia Arabia has to be fought with every tool they have including the deluded Pole.
Not bad at all!!! I love this guy!!! Thanks for posting this... Thanks very much!!!
Bookmarked!!!
He wants scientists to devise a common framework for evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of each.
Couldn't they use something other than corn? Something more along the lines of a weed that could be sewn and ignored?
Production of ethanol is expensive. "Denaturing it", making it poisonous to all living things, is simply to make it poisonous so we won't drink it, aka vodka, without paying the dollars of tax on every pint, or glass. This poisonous alcohol shall be spilled and it mixes with ground water forever, por until more million$ are spent on our drinking water treatments. Remember MtBE ruining some California's aquifers for generations, costing tens of million$ to "remediate"? Most aquifers have been poisoned by that mandated fuel additive. A foolish mistake ordered upon us and our children. Per gallon, ethanol has a fraction of the energy of gas, therefore less gas mileage per tankful. Ethanol also make relatively more toxic byproducts than pure gas, aka smog; look it up, my research is boxed awaiting a move. Car engines must be detuned to burn this blended fuel; some years ago, my car nearly quit running after filling up in Nebraska, sputtering into Oklahoma.
"Geologists tell us there are enough latent heat units (BTUs) in America’s coal reserves to last us for a couple of millenia, give or take a few centuries. The LTC process is all it would take to dispel the monopoly myth that we must depend on Arabian princes to regulate our thermostats until......"

Also, if we use ethanol, all the money stays here, right?
