Snowshoe Re: Bio-fuels for China. Can Chinese agriculture support a large scale ethanol industry and feed the country too? I thought the North China wheat growing lands were similar to our upper midwest but not as productive due to less fertile soil and a dryer and cooler climate. As for developing more efficient vehicles there were many small motorbikes built in the 1930's that were capable of 200 miles per gallon and would run on ethanol with a little tinkering. IC engine design was a pretty mature technology by the 1930's; very little can be accomplished now in terms of performance or efficiency that couldn't be done in 1935. Slagle
