<div><SPAN style="DISPLAY: inline-block"></SPAN>FWIW, an off topic that interests me in particular is EtOH manufacture from common wood fiber (cellulose) rather than corn (starch brewing). Experimentation and research is continuing in this area. Part of my taxes (and yours) go to fund this important work. It won't happen tomorrow....but when it finally does arrive in about 10 or so years, EtOH price will likely be about 1/3 of what we currently pay per gallon for fuel (gas not model airplane, that is). But THAT waits to be seen</div>
