Well .. anyway, the next time that somebody sayz something about renewable energy, you can show them that it's already here.

And the fact that you've never heard of the corn furnace shows how much everybody really cares.

Have you heard that the NH House was looking into leagalizing growing of Hemp?

Personally, I think Hemp has great potential in our society for composites. Might as well let the farmers farm it instead of paying them not to farm (not necessarily NH farmers). Also, it has to be processed locally so that will create local jobs.

Heck you can get like 40X the pulp from a acre of hemp vs trees, this would slow the logging for pulp. I believe that pulp prices are very high, this adds to the cost of building lumber.
