You too. I wonder, if somehow word reaches the author, or if he is reading, if he could be persuaded at some point, in future articles, to *not* use Mr. Pimentel as the only source on the ethanol sustainability issue. I thought it was an excellent article, but on that issue, it needs to be said that Mr. Pimentel is (as best I've been able to determine) nearly entirely alone in his views amongst respected reseachers, he is always the one quoted, and while there are more respected views than his which question whether ethanol is more than marginally sustainable, none seem to question the basic issue of sustainability. The issue is more widely-debated, with a much wider range of views, than Mr. Pimentel would ever let on. I do not ask that the author ignore the claims of this or that researcher, but he might like to be aware that Mr. Pimentel does not necessarily represent the mainstream of thinking on these matters, nor even the mainstream of government analyses. Rather, he comes across as the carefully-protected darling of anti-ethanol forces, partly because they can find so very few others to echo his views. The author may wish to consider that there may be several different plausible explanations as to why Mr. Pimentel is nearly alone in his views.
