I am so ready for an alternative fuel for my car I don't know what to do. Over the past year I have taken an interest in ethanol and was happy to see the report last month from the University of Nebraska about the possibility of switchgrass being used to make ethanol. Doing my on-line research I have noticed that the anti-ethanol crowd sort of pics and choose their "facts" to support the anti-ethanol (pro-oil stance).

One argument they keep throwing around is the vast amount of land it would take to replace gasoline as a fuel. I am not sure why they try to make this argument because I don't want to get rid of gasoline. What good would it do to go from one source to another? Having both at the same time would introduce competition in to the equation and lower prices for both fuel sources. I don't have anything against the oil industry, but I have an extreme dislike for OPEC. If an American farmer can give Chaves a kick in the nuts then I would be willing to pay a little extra to see it happen.

Not sure where I am going with this topic other than I wish I could get real facts from people that really know.
