    Add to this the study recently published that made it clear that electric vehicles really are bigger carbon producers than gasoline powered cars. What most liberals refuse to acknowledge is that the road to non-fossil fuel dependence is expensive, and dependent on increased fossil fuel use to accelerate the change.

    I talk to guys who do work on small engines and they tell me that ethanol is really tough on them. Here in PA we require up to 10% ethanol during warmer months.

    I'm not in favor of more gov't regulation and higher café standards, but this report showing that ethanol is not the savior that the greenies profess it to be is certainly not unexpected.

    I was talking with my butcher yesterday, while eyeing a beautifully cut rib-eye, marked at $13.98 per lb. This was marked down $5 per lb in order to "move" it out of the store. Direct effect of fuel / feed competition in the market is driving prices up substantively for ranchers. Another thumbs down for regulation affects.
