Ethanol is less energy dense than gasoline.  The use of ethanol from
agriculture products is a political item, not a conservation move.  Actually
the production of ethanol in fuel causes more greenhouse gases than the
production of straight gasoline.  It is a lose-lose game.

Once there were two hillbillies talking and one said to the other that the 10%
alcohol-90% gasoline would not sell well.  The other said, "Why?"  The first
replied, "Cause it tastes turrible."  This should have put an end to using
corn for fuel.  It is much better in a glass.
