Will that allow us to grow more corn to offset the bio-fuel craze that is going to affect world-wide food prices this coming year?

I would think, but I'm not all that familiar with the biofuel stuff. Is this stuff actually plausable, or is it just another media propagated hopeful?

Well, it works in most Diesel applications but at the price of increasing the cost of corn used for food products. People are using corn oil for bi-fuel and ethanol made from corn for E85. Corn is the staple food for most third and second world countries, and this kick may price these people right out of a meal.

I've heard about this E85 stuff. I've never seen a gas station around here carry it, though. Is it common in bigger cities or down by you at all?

Looks like hydrogen wasn't the holy grail of energy after all... at least not yet.
