el gaviero, I'm pretty much in agreement with your position here and I have read many of your posts on the other boards I am mostly onboard there too, especially with regard to Israel. Your idea that many people here are full of foreboding and are "getting ready" for great changes is correct too, especially out in the "red" states.

I think that biofuels will have a future but in an America where biofuels are a necessity rather than just a form of farm state pork will be a very different country. Not long ago in this country we farmed almost totally with draft animals and we could do it again. Our biggest problem then was overproduction so surely we could feed ourself and have left over capacity for some amount of biofuel. Manure crops can be plowed under for fertilizer, ect. I grew up on such a farm and when I was a kid we still had some mules. But this was modern scientific farming with an elaborate set of implements and when tractors replaced the mules the advantage was marginal.
