Hopefully, there are not too many knee-jerk reactions to ethanol and
some good solid info comes forth. It MUST be able to be used (probably
with some modifications). Back in the 90s there was a group with Van's
RV series airplanes that flew at Oshkosh with 100% ethanol, if I recall.
Brazil has been using high concentrations of ethanol for many years.
I am very interested in learning what can be done to make a safe
transition to ethanol based fuels...because I think it will be coming
soon enough...

Ethanol is acidic and corrosive... It is death to aircraft rubber fuel
tanks, many kinds of rubber seals, corrodes many metals, and is a bad
idea all around... They can't make ethanol fast enough so they will
resort to methanol, which is even more nasty...

But, don't let me stand in your way of knowledge... Do a search on
ethanol + corrosion and find out what I don't know...
