    how much I hate the whole ethanol shuck and how much I dispise GWB for pushing it. It is madness and total immorality to use food staples to  generate energy so we can continue to drive inefficient cars while others in the world starve.

      Incentivising ethanol production from corn is one of the most insanely destructive things our administration has done.  And considering that this is an administration that specializes in insane destruction, that's really saying something.

      I also agree that cutting back on meat is one of the healthiest things anyone can do for themselves and the environment both.  No downsides, it's benefits all around.

        I'm not going vegetarian by a long shot, but I've resolved to myself to step up the number of meat-free days per week for the family; currently, I do one or two per week. I'd like to get that up to three or even four, if I can sneak it past the husband.
