And if the gov't put more effort into creating an E85-capable infrastructure...this would all be a non-issue....but that makes too much sense.
AAAAHHHHHHAAAA!!! Now that you mention it, I remember watching a deal on Horsepower TV where they toured Royal Purple or something and they mentioned starting with crude... My bad

So is there a problem with the production of E85 causing corn and rice prices to increase with any significance? That's the only opposition to E85 that I can think of off the top of my head.
