Hey Conservative,

Which facts above are hand-picked? Facts are facts -- there is no "opinion" given above.
I am not discussing RINs, the ethanol industry vs. petroleum, etc., etc. I provided a video link to show how ethanol is made, and the fact that corn doesn't "disappear". Complain all you want about regulation, complain all you want about how ethanol does bad things.

What I find interesting is how so many "patriotic" Americans can **** on an American industry -- even then, my points are about ethanol. How does any technology develop? It take blood-and-sweat capital, and the monetary kind, as well. Some historical reading on the start of the petroleum industry you might also find interesting -- it was as much of a ****show, if not worse.

End of rant. Use whatever fuels you want. But I'll be ready to read *facts you can provide rather than opinions.

And the water required to grow enough corn to produce a gallon of ethanol is about 75 gallons much of which comes from our aquifers.
