Can someone please remind me of the advantages of ethanol in fuel?
It strikes me that setting up competitive tension between the
world's fuel supply and the world's food supply seems like a bad

Admittedly the timeline for this story is a little dated, but the point
made is still valid. It was a hot topic in the news in New Zealand
when I was over there a couple of weeks ago.
I guess it's OK if we are not the ones going without food because those
in some affluent countries need fuel for their arguably extravagant
activities.
Or is it?
