the epa has approved 15% gasahol

the simple fact is this.....the cost of the petroleum used to ship your food from the processor to your local grocery store contributes more to the cost of your food than the corn used to make the ethanol that replaces it.......

The simple fact is that until 1900 food cost one third of an average person's salary. Between 1900 and 2000 food costs diminished to 1 tenth of an average person's salary, due to agricultural improvements (industrial revolution). Since 2000, food was returned to 1/3 of an average persons salary. The major difference during that short period is the food for fuel program and world-wide starvation has skyrocketed.

The original flat head engine was rebuilt but not the carb. The carb is the only thing that hasn't been rebuilt. That will be my project this year. I have the gasket kit.

I used to do that in ten minutes, and on a much later, more complex unit. What are you pissing an moaning about?

it is far more expensive to modify vehicles to operate on natural gas than to modify them to run on ethanol.....

That's a ridiculous argument, like "It will take 7 years before we'd see the first drop of oil from ANWR, so it won't help the situation".

We don't need to modify vehicles, just replace old ones with new ones in accordance with the usual life cycle.
