sanity
finally. at last. some sanity coming from washington. the senate voted to cut ethanol subsidies. yay! here's the situation. we grow some food. we burn a bunch of fuel to turn the food into a different fuel. at the end of the day, we have, wait for it: fuel. and yeah a few people with work to do. hungry people. on the other hand. in the past, and hopefully again in the future, we grow some food. and at the end of the day, we have: fuel *and* food. like duh. totally duh. it was an interesting experiment to do on a small scale. but on the large scale, it is some sort of greed fueled boondoggle.
