You get 0 mpg when idling in stopped traffic.
I suppose it's worse than "0". Since in most cars the engine
keeps running while stopped, it has the effect of a negative mpg on overall gas
mileage.My 2004 Prius' engine stops when the traffic stops, which is
great for mpg and air quality. And

Some hard questions, and painful for those of us in the US who are
conflicted about the good and bad our country, or its citizens, have done in and
to the world, and in this country itself. [As I write this, I have

What kind of "residue" is left from wood or these other alternative inputs
to the ethanol production process. Anything of value, like
seedcake from biodiesel production? Anything harmful?

Excellent points Hakan. Plenty of other places to discuss

biofuels will have a critical role in meeting our future energy needs. I

Regarding use of "human manure," it's my understanding that sewage sludge

I think your lengthy posting about the content of this list was
well-intentioned, but as a number of responses have indicated, problematic for
some of us.

I have read various estimates about the net fuel gain from the production
of ethanol from corn vs the production of biodiesel from soy. (I'm
aware that ethanol and biodiesel can be produced from other sources as well, but
corn and soy seem to be dominate in the US.)
"Google" on "vegetarian" and you'll find numerous sources of information on
how to get anhealthful diet.
I've been "vegetarian" for two and a half years now, although I have to
admit I occasionally eat fish (sustainable types), milk (organic) -- although I
