HI Glenn.

Excellent read.

Two years ago I attended a GM fleet meeting where they disclosed their investment in Coskata.

They stated corn based etynol is simply the first step in building a delivery infrastructure that would yield to non food based ethynol.

This transition was then 3-5 years out.

It would be driven by economic cost reasons and not by government mandate.

I believe this evolution has huge long term power.

The global swing of wealth will never be the same once technology offers up economical reason to get off oil.

These are very exciting time of powerful mage transitions.

Articles such as yours give us a view that is mostly kept under the sight of the masses.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks

Bob
