Plumbing problems are really very small in the greater scheme of
things. If all that was available was straight ethanol or methanol,
plumbing would become available.


Right.


All this whining about the problems with alternative fuels is nothing
but hand-wringing.


Right.

Let's not bother to look at any of the details, let's just pull something
out of our ass and implement it.

If it turns out to be unworkable for reasons of economics or engineering
or both, we'll just keep pulling things out of our ass until we luck out
and get something that works.

Great plan.
