How do you feel about this fueling the issues with corn and soy in the food industry? I feel like it'd be going against what I've been avoiding in food this last year.

Hm. I'm just diving into biofuel issues. But from what I know, we can use biowaste for fuel, and even algae. I mean, you can use used fry oil for god's sake. So I would guess that corn and soy industries would fight to use unused corn/soy rather than creating a sustainable, or nearly sustainable, fuel by utilizing our biowaste.

We should talk more about it so we can answer our questions.

I seem to be at the same place with this biofuel stuff. I'm looking at buying a diesel because I need a car and all that. Hop on dat AIM sometime.
