Default Hidden costs of ethenol

Has anyone figured this out yet? Even if 1 half of all americans
change over
to e-85 ethanal fuel, there isn't enough farm land to produce the corn
that
will be needed. We will once again be looking to an imported fuel
base.

That's what the "so called" experts claim, but I sure see a lot of farm land
that's not growing anything weeds.

I guess we would all have the right to complain, that increased corn
production would decrease our available assets for emergency landings.
