Hi Al,

Although that article was fairly down on the effectiveness of
ethanol, I have to point out here that it was based on Ethanol
production from corn.

The last paragraph reads as follows:

So I'd have to presume that there is at least one writer in CO who'd
be happy with this new source of Ethanol. And I guess I'll add Jim in
Boston to that list as well.

Happy Trails,
