Thanks Quicksilver Never seen that before. I liked the part stating Ethanol would only meet 12% of our gasoline demand . They didn't mention that it only has about 66% of the energy production of gas. If you ran your car on pure Ethanol it would take 33% more to go the same distance. AND they want to subsidize it! So besides paying through the nose for it at the pump we get to pay for it's production through taxes too!

It's called buying the farming states vote - tried that stuff during my X-country drives - fouls up the fuel filter, gets poorer gas mileage - that was with my GMC Savana van, 350ci V8 - no way I'm letting that stuff near my X5
