I think we should go to Pedal Cars... think of the advantage in health and
the environment... never mind the drastic reduction of fatal highway
accidents.

Ethanol is heavily subsidized in the US thanks to Cargill and Bob Dole.
It
actually increases pollution by lowering the gas mileage and efficiency
of
a
car engine. Looking at the total production cycle ethanol is a bust as
far
as cost and pollution.

Why is ethanol completely ignored? We can grow corn til the cows
come
home (provided they don't take a shortcut through the cornfield).
It's
the most practical renewable resource today, and would benefit one of
the
most beleagured segments of society: farmers. Our local ethanol
plant
can produce a gallon of ethanol for less than 25 cents. Auto engines
can
be made to run on pure or slightly modified ethanol for less cost
than
to
convert them to run on methane, and for a tiny fraction of the cost
of
hydrogen fuel cell technology.

We sell ethanol at the pumps here in Canada..... it's not that cheap!
