Regardless, ethanol production is needed, and the more the
better.

What do you consider to be the "pros" of ethanol?

For the US, it reduces oil imports, billions of gallons per
year.

It will provide the means to do away with farm subsidies,
if only congress has the brains to make it happen.

It is much cleaner burning, and with the engine tuned for it,
it has more power, check Indy 500 for details.

It is carbon neutral, as is all animal and human emissions of
CO2.

The Indy use alcohol because of gasoline fire, but check that
out too.

When oil becomes too expensive and in short supply, ethanol
is one of the biofuels that is easy to make.


There is nothing bad about ethanol, although because it has
an oxygen atom in the molecule, it needs less air, so a bigger tank may
be needed for the same miles per tank.
(Miles Per Gallon is not a criteria for different fuels,
Miles Per Dollar is the important factor).
