Oklahoma: world's largest switchgrass farm to be planted this spring

Thanks Ron.. Good news. I stumbled upon the funniest set of videos about biofuels.

While I don't agree with congress mandating higher economy. (that should still be a choice) I do like the support of ethanol and their push to mandate E85 pumps. but I'll take the good with the bad... as long as I can get my E85 since I have maximized the tuning so I get 27mpg on E85 from my normal 30 MPG on straight gas. 10% loss that's a win!! oh and 25 more horsepower!!!!!!!


Check these out. Be cautious adult content.
forgive me if they are not in order. but they are funny. and proof there is support...

just to dust-off a bit this topic but I wonder what kind of plants, where ethanol could be extracted, who could grow without too much difficulties in a aera where soil is pretty poor, rocky and alkaline?

I've casually read that the "creosote bush" I saw in Arizona and southern California has potential but I have never looked into it.
