   Corn is not the ethanol that eco-nazis want.   
      
   Corn is a political idea, from an agri-lobby that likes Washington.   
      
   Real Ethanol?  It's of sugar cane, grasses.   
      
   The US public has been "had" over corn to be Ethanol.   
      
   Do you know that ethanol was always a fuel?   
      
      
   "Denatured" ethanol goes back to the 17th century.   
      
   Ethanol is booze.  "Denatured" is adding 10% methanol to it, so it can't be   
   consumed like booze.   
      
   Denaturing it made it not booze, hence as fuel.
