Ok, we seem to be looking for answers instead of sticking it up someone's butt as goes on here. Thanks for the nice come back.

<<How much does it cost to produce versus the price of regular gas.>>

A tad more but less than adding MTBE. It's a distilling process that can take corn cobs to boil the alcohol off the fermented corn.

<<Also, how much can be produced? You can only grow so many plants at a time.>>

More than you could believe. We have 260 million tons of extra corn in storage. Most of the feed nutrients are removed before making the ethanol.
