Good afternoon, I'm hearing a lot of negative feedback regarding ethanol as an alternative fuel. Here is a short article from Fortune magazine which discusses an alternative source for biodiesel. Is this common already and I've just missed it? Any other thoughts or comments? "BP's answer to food-based ethanol: The oil giant believes an inedible plant called jatropha can ease global fuel demands. It could boost incomes in Africa and other impoverished regions too." http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2007/09/17/100259 542/index.htm?postversion=2007090706 Patrick T.
