Hopefully they will come up with other ways to make ethanol other than using our food crops and hopefully soon. Current ethanol regulation is just another example of why the goverment should stay out of the markets. Everytime they get involved it is a disaster. And the only people trying to con us into thinking there is no corelation between rising food prices and ethanol are the same people who are lining their pockets with money as well as those who have a dog in the ethanol scam.

The other joke about ethanol is that because of the additional ethanol production mandated by the goverment it has driven up the costs of corn, which has in turn driven up the costs of ethanol beyond the point now that makes it worth buying. It has gone from $2.29 up to $3.00 while at the same time gas is coming down. Because of this I have stopped buying ethonal and just started buying gas again especially since I get much better MPG's with gas.
