*Very* pseudo-environmentalist.  My understanding has been that the Sierra
Club and other environmentalist groups are opposed to gasahol usage, but
that the Archer Daniel Midlands Corp (ADM, for those of you who watch
Face the Nation...;) got Bush's government to push thru gasahol legislation
to handle a potentially financially damaging corn surplus of the past 
couple years.  ADM is the major producer of grain alcohol for gasahol
production.

There are many better alternatives.  Gasahol reduces CO, but produces
other nasties...

Oh, and Granville county has regular gas, too...
