My energy resume?

didn't know we were measuring that particular body part but if we are to go there, I don't have children or pets by choice, I live walking distance from my employer, I keep my cars in service rather than dispose of them and they both are modified to run on cleaner fuels. I'm pretty sure that makes my big green thing as long as anyone else's, short of perhaps homeless folks who shoot blanks and don't burn rubbish to keep warm.

Back to the topic at hand, I have yet to see worthwhile data against the viability of ethanol that didn't have counter-data. For the reasons in my post above, I think it's the only choice we really have if we're trying to wean ourselves off petroleum within the next 50 years, so if that is our objective we better push with the stick we've got or we may as well just sit around doing nothing. We sure as heck won't get anywhere if we sit around coming up with reasons not to take any action.

Cheers
