Hidden costs of ethenol

One more thing I would like to point out on the corn- food-ethanol debate is that making ethanol uses only the starch
in corn. The protein is still there and is used as a high quality feed, called dried distillers grains or DDG. It is
mostly feed to cattle. The most effecient ethanol plants have a feed lot next to them and the solids are feed wet to
the cattle saving the energy usually used to dry the stuff. The cattle manure is used as a source of methane for
energy to run the ethanol plant. It still requires additional energy, but every savings helps. There are other
byproducts of the process to, but my point is a lot of the corn still is used as food. The main study the media likes
to quote to discredit ethanol was done about 20 years ago and is hopelessly out of date.



It is hopeless alright...

It is hopeless alright...


Not to worry! The coming market correction will render large segments
of the population incapable of buying gasohol... That alone will
reduce our energy imbalance there is always a silver lining...

Did you notice that the Clintons bailed out of the market, converting
some $25M into cash and CD's?
They are lawyers so just pay attention to what they are doing not what
they are saying if their lips are movin', etc., ... Being the
ultimate insiders, they know something the peons don't..
I made my decision... Yeah, I may miss a good year for the market -
the year before an election traditionally being prime the pump time by
the congress - but then again, I may look like a genius a year from
now... We shall see...

(NAC) Necessary Aviation Content:
The PBS special on LBJ (which aired years ago) mentioned how he came to the
Senate/White House with squat, and left with a mini fortune - much of it
through land dealings.

Something about the selection site for the "new" Dallas airport magically
being on (or near) property he had recently acquired. g

Shoot! That's almost the same thing that happened back in Arkansas when
he became governor. Old habits are hard to break...

We are overdue, but things are not badly over priced and an election
year is coming up. Based on that I'd hang in there for another 6
months and re-evaluate, but I was wrong once in my younger days:-))
