“Data always beats theories. 'Look at data three times and then come to a conclusion,' versus 'coming to a conclusion and searching for
some data.' The former will win every time.”

That's why these biofuels threads are so popular, IMO.
However, there are lots of other paths we are straying down. CO2 injection for recovery of stranded oil for one. Offshore drilling of America's continental shelves for another. Coal for everything -- power generation, conversion to liquids, you name it. If you believed all the propaganda, the US has more recoverable liquid reserves than Saudi Arabia. I'm not kidding. Biofuels is small potatoes compared to what I just brought up.
