Corn based ethanol is a con job as it takes more energy to make the ethanol than you get back out of it. Sugarcane based ethanol like the Brazilians use gives more energy back than it takes to make so it is a good way to go. We should all be driving our gassers on RUM and our Diesels on rapeseed based bioD, which I believe gives the highest oil yields (better than soy, etc)
