Why are all the Bio fuel comments I%26#039;m seeing %26amp; hearing about corn? I don%26#039;t pay that much attention to the subject, but even I understand that there are MANY other crops that can be used instead. Does corn produce more...oomph... than the other choices? I think it would be more than foolish to power vehicles (%26amp; whatnot) with food. Anyone else scared of a future where you %26amp; your children starve, while some rich dude drives by in a car that is, (instead of drinking gas), eating food?

If we are talking about ethanol, bad idea.
If we are talking about bio-diesel, good idea!
Also may other crops can be used to make fuel, what you are witnessing is lobbyist influencing the future of this country at its finest. Who corn ethanol benefits is, first the oil industry, next the genetically modified corn industry (Monsanto) and lastly the pesticide industry, another side to petroleum.

• Because the government mandated the use of corn... Politicians are idiots.
  We now divert 1/5th of our corn production into this useless product thats sole purpose is further the man-made GW hoax.
