So when you go out gardening do you wear the big floppy hat???

QUOTE I was talking the other day to a guy who feeds out beef cattle. He was complaining about the cost of corn to feed his cattle, even though he grows it. I asked about the feed by-products from the ethanol plant to feed the beef. He said they will eat it, but they do not like it, so it takes longer to feed them out. Every day longer it takes to get them to market he loses money. He said , of the stuff, it would be like having Honey Nut Cheerios and then having to eat generic plain cheerios. And, Yes I agree. If you do not have livestock, you are no longer a farmer, just a big gardener. No I'm not upset. Pretzel is not have enough knowledge on the subject to really have any meaningful input. All his information and statements always come from what "some guy I know" says...  I have actually fed distillers grains to livestock. They LOVED it. Just make sure you thank those "gardeners" everyday for feeding and clothing you, your entire family, and well everyone else.
It must hurt to keep that all encompassing brain under that helmet 
You should really get a grasp the of the English language before you start on me. 
And I suppose I should take the word of "some guy" meaning" you", versus a farmer who produces beef for a living meaning him.
I do like them carrots!

I know this guy who makes his living commenting on discussion forums and he told me that people who judge a persons intelligence based on if they miss an auto correct error are really trying to hide the fact that they lack any meaningful input.
He does it for a living. So it must be true! Just saying....
Nice try though!

Your intellect is dizzying.
Is that meaningful enough for you.
Quit wearing your feelings on your sleeve. It is not all about you. Just saying, Nice try though.
Back to the topic.
I think the push to up the limits comes more from the ethanol lobby than from anything else. Let it stand on its own as a viable product or let it go. We should not be forced to subsidize it and then be forced to buy it.

So what happens when the oil runs out? It will someday, you do realize that, don't you? What are we going to replace it with? Maybe we should just wait until the supply starts to dwindle to worry about it. Unfortunatly that will be way to late. Or maybe we should bet on some future technological breakthrough to save us.
We need to keep improving the technology and infrastructure for a non petroleum liquid fuel source now. This is going to take a long time due to big oil and short sighted dunderheads doing everything possible to jeopardize our energy future.

This is why there's a big push to go to war with Iran right now. It isn't about nukes, my friends - it's about an Iranian oil bourse, set up to trade in rials and yuans and rubles - anything BUT petrodollars. And that has some powerful folks worried.

No, or so history and available knowledge dictate.
