The story is completely ridiculous.
Mandating that all cars/trucks be Flex Fuel only and using E85 is insane.

Burning our food for fuel is nuts. It takes about 1.5 gal. of oil to generate 1 gal. of Ethanol.

The can't believe that the US has the agricultural capacity to grow enough corn or what ever to convert to ethanol.

We have plenty of oil to exploit, but no political will to retrieve it. Develop the oil and KEEP it here in the US is what needs to be done.

I support that, of course.
