Nope,we turn millions of pounds of surplus corn and feed corn into "corn syrup" every year,because we can`t get rid of it fast enough.
Just say what you said, to a group of Iowa farmers,then run as fast as you can out of the room,before you git hit w/ garbage.
Brazil is energy independent,and started on the course of energy independence years ago,under the guidance of
José Goldemberg
With real leadership,we could do what Brazil is doing.

To not do these things and to not start towards energy independence,is saying you support blood for oil(our son`s and daughter`s blood).You`ll be saying that you`re ok with the status quo.
Now that we`re being a little honest here,let`s also add the cost of the Iraq war,in lives lost and in money, to the cost of a gallon of gas.
Because there most certainly is a direct connection,and relationship.
That would make the real cost of gas say,double,triple what it is now?And what price does one put on the life of a GI.
How many soldiers are going to die(per year),so we can have cheap oil?
When it comes to energy and the future,we have got to avoid the nay-sayers and cynics.Believe me,Exxon and Haliburton aren`t going to do this,in fact,they`re going to spend millions to keep things just as they are.
Try again. It's obvious that you aren't thinking about this! When you convert food to energy on the scale that we need, the poor will get hungrier. Come on, it's obvious to even the most casual observer... it's even been in the news. Why do I even try to discuss things with you... you ignore anything that doesn't suit your agenda, and you either cannot or will not face reality.
