I've always maintained that we will see efficiencies steadily improve in the ethanol production field - oil will be the high cost fuel soon. But...wow...

"its organisms can produce ethanol twice as efficiently as they could in January........."

"The bugs can produce 100 times as much ethanol from a dry ton of material as they could in 2006.........."

Now THAT is some fast, and big, improvement!

With the cost issue trending so one sided towards ethanol (vs oil), the other problems (quantity, distribution, etc) should become easier to deal with.
