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.

As in everything with a balance, there are two options:
1. Produce more
2. Use less

Considering the world rank of the USA on energy consumption, I'd focus on #2
