I think Sam was asking food *or* fuel. Jatropha is a great example of a crop that is NOT FOOD, but a great fuel. Further it goes in the desert - places where it is not feasible to grow food - so it creates a massive wealth building opportunity for, say, Africa. And just on the surface, which sounds more difficult: 1.) growing fuel crops, or 2.) exploring for and drilling for oil (not to mention refining). Including in the ocean? If we were going to start from scratch today, exploring for oil and then drilling for it would seem ridiculous compared to just planting some fuel crops. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get involved in the latest ColdFusion discussions, product development sharing, and articles on the Adobe Labs wiki. http://labs/adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ColdFusion_8 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:247639 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
