After reading my previous post I have to edit again. Ethanol contains more energy than it takes to produce it. There, I think that I stated that correctly. I was editing and could not get this url typed in time. journeytoforever.org This 1995 Dept. of Agriculture report gives a positive gain of energy by 24%. ethanol-gec.org This update of that study in 2002 gives a gain of 34% using ethanol. ethanolrfa.org Argonne study suggests a 67% energy gain using ethanol in 2004. agriculture.com No single source of energy will satisfy the demand or equal oil for simplicity of energy acquisition. But all sources combined along with efficient vehicles, structures and general consumption can change our excessive habit for energy. Better to make the shift and change than to suffer the ultimate consequence of inaction. Die off is the ultimate consequence for a society that does not manage its resources and consumes them totally. Witness Easter Island. But, it ain't gonna be easy. And the more we delay. The worse it will be. Of course this is my opinion. Not fact. Ultimately, time will tell. Bill
