  2. "With ethanol the energy yield is 8:1 for sugar cane, 2:1 for sugar beets, and 1.3:1 for corn."

    We need to find new jobs and/or new starter plants for these corn farmers. Corn is just not going to do it and sugar cane is a tropical plant.

  5. it wrecks your car too if you have an older vehicle with a carburator. i put some in my collector car and my motorcycle and atv last fall. in just 6 months it gummed up the carburators on them. it has a very short shelf life compared to straight gasoline.
