Dear Mr. Pannrselvam:
Thanks ever so much for taking the time to comment our last message.
I appreciate the way you have presented your ideas and I take my hat off to
your very high qualifications. Your points of view can certainly draw the
greatest respect.
I wound like to correpond with you more often about our mutual goals
and perspectives. To that effect, should you agree, I wish to suggest that
we discuss issues, one by one, without rush or haste. I feel that we both
could benefit from our mutual experiences. We may have different points of
view, but, in the end, we both strive for a happier world.
Something needs to be corrected from your message is that:
We have never used genetically modified sugar cane plants
We have never used genetically modified yeast
We do not endorse and have never used or recommended the use of genetically
modified seeds, plants or any other organism.
Kindly please review our posts and you will not find any reference to GMO.
Your comments will honour me again.
With warmest regards,
Luis R. Calzadilla

Subject: RE: [biofuel] Re: Ethanol from sugar cane:Thebest and worst
technolgy
I being dedicated research worker in Brazil with PhD in Biochemical
engineering from India about alcohol production from biomass from one of
the best research center in Asia in 1980 , carefully following the state
of art this technology several decads,feel that the views of the Keith
is ecological and Luiz , genetic engineering which are totally totally
different.Even though I belonged unfortunately this breed of the
higher caste of biotechnology tribes with limited kespealized kwnowelge
like Dr luiz , I am fortunate enough to leave away this caste.In india it
is not possible to change the caste because they say genetica nad god made ,
but with the interation of the active yahoo biofuel group (high quality ,
vey ha limited experts group and making great effort to become an
ecological engineering student , rather than to have limited specialist
approach like one that of Dr Luiz approach of genetic engineering ,
transgenics and hybrids .The
biotechnology experts in general do not try to see all aspects and
understand what is natural ,simple , decentralized ecological system , not
even this natural ecological system developments.
In Brazil , all high yielding projects of fruits and any crop lead
to total collapse of the lands water leading to degradation of lands.
The insects devastations of mono crops of the Cotton has lead to
billion dollars until now the real reason for the poverty of the people
who were rich 10 years ago.Yet no biotechnology experts has introduced new
one here.
Brazil has high yielding cassava , which can produce twice the
alcohol.Yet, not able to make it possible reality , as they used the same
method to implement as that of luiz , with enorme waste of money eventhouh
this has higher productivity , 2 time that of cane per ha.
In India a lot of alcohol made in home scale micro distillery using
biomass energy cheaper and village leval pot distillation technolgy , with
out any cane at all , using the palm tree can help to make arrack killing
people as food can be used as biofuel.No patent is there , not much
literature, but every uneducated can make the biofuel.
This can be the best technology as the yeast there can ferment everty
thing.The best and worst technolgy are very relative , change place to
place.
Dr luiz really need to rethink again that the problem of food , fuel
,fertilizer, feed and food are inter connected to make the whole thing work
in Argo industrial system.Only one canot be the best system to all the
people , to all the country for all the the time the best.
Biodiversity is less kwnown to many like Dr.Luiz. Any less educated
people like native tribal Indians knows very well that imported one; the
hybrid, the transgenic, genetically modified are not better than naturally
adopted local variety created by nature. There is great debate in Brazil
every where now a days about the way the biotechnology experts groups
are trying to have rapid quick technological anda economical developments ,
in sustainablel for long time where the future generations food and energy
cannot be assured , as if matter the present generation.
Again , I as an scientific researcher on behave of of the many of the
members fully agree with the Keith and wish that our group need to focus
the is so com objective and not an attack of personnel views and opinions.
with out any base and truth.
I am sure that my words represent the views of many members who do
not have time not even to read all the important so many biofuel
information, imagine how they can reply .
Once Again best wishes Keith keep it up the correct critical
ecological thinking.
Your hard working dedicated work can only be well understood to all the
less developed one as you become the part and parcel of it.When this large
starving people can made his own food and fuel with out importing fuel
using the road map our group make , there can be great green future for all
.
Sorry for my poor English, as I am way 20 years without the contact with the
language .
For all the members the best wishes and the new happy yaer to all
our biofuel group.
Thanking you
Truely
