Is that Corn Ethanol you're talking about? (I'm just trying to clarify)

Then, on your electricity point: does it not take the burning of fossil fuels to make gasoline, too? Except when you make gasoline...you have to burn it again to use it. Double dipping, and worse than electricity.

Not arguing...but playing the devil's advocate, I guess.
