alt fuels arent good at any price of oil.

The stupid use of alt energy sources in the problem. It can be cheaper to have a windmill ( or small solar/battery combo) in the middle of nowhere than it is to run power lines. I haven't seen the numbers recently comparing costs on sugar vs corn ethanol, still certain ethanol s we know it is a losing proposition here for the taxpayers.
Of course our friendly lobbyist are back helping write legislation in DC and Austin.
