Dr. Humphrey,
 When I was an undergraduate at UF, Dr. Lamar Miller of Black Hall would
require that documents used in research papers come from peer reviewed
sources. None of the attachments that you provided have that level of
scrutiny.
 Furthermore, a summary of the articles would be more useful.
 I agree that biofuels made from waste streams may prove economical;
however, can it occur without subsidies? If the demand increase sharply, the
price will rise just as quickly.
