Not to mention that when you factor in the petroleum required (diesel for the tractors that work the corn fields, petro based fertilizers, energy required for distillation etc) you are burning more gallons of petro than you are creating in gallons of ethanol to produce about 30% less efficiency in the combustion chamber and polluting more.....
