Message	was actually in your hometown of Houston. Lots of politicians and oil big shots doing a lot of lobbying: I think this years event is in DC, let the lobbying begin! I think the reason that corn based ethanol is talked up so much is to make it look like the government/oil companies/auto manufactureres are doing something pro-active to help us end full oil dependency. On a side note I love how BP (British petrolueum) is now using the term Beyond Petroleum in their advertising campaign.
