<VV> RE: Ethanol? filter problems?

[Eric S. Eberhard]

In addition ... it is renewable!  And for those of you not involved in 
farming, the subsidizing farmers excuse is just that ... if we did not pay 
the farmers to grow it for fuel we would just end up paying the farmers not 
to grow it at all (in order to prop up prices) or the government would buy 
it, put it in bins, and then pay to dispose of it years later ... the 
government feels it is in the country's interest to keep farmers in business.
