midway through the presidents little speech, he talked about making new gas from grass and bark. he said it should be finished within 6 years and also used on vehicles. anyone know what im talking about? and if you do, do you think it will work?

i think it's biofuel or somesh*t like that... learned about it in environmental class. I think it might work, but it's hard to cultivate it and stuff.

Cptn. Slow

weren't we supposed to be on mars sometime soon according to him too? (not dissing on him)

He might be talking about making cars run on just ethanol (SP?). In my oppinion the government should just release/unclassify hydrogen technology as GM and Toyota have requested.

i tought i was the only one who watched the state of the union. glad to see i wasnt!

hes an idiot. he has no idea what a biofuel is. he only knows (thinks he knows) how live on a ranch is and how to be a crappy president modelled after another crappy president; his dad.
ignore him, cause these talks about his stupidity arent even fun anymore

okay then no it won't work without making new cars to run on ethanol. and harvesting it will also add costs.

he also said india and china are catching up to the US economical wise and then went on to say "WE CANNOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN!" lolz... silly bush.

With 2+ billion people between them they better overtake the US...

As for biofuel, its not -too- far flung, it just requires a large infrastructure investment, I don't think we'll ever entirely divorce ourselves from fossil fuels, but countries w. successful ethanol use like Brazil (biggest economy in S. America) set a good example...

I believe he didn't say anything about CONSERVATION.

I would have bought a VW TDI until I read about how CRAPPY our diesel fuel is compared to Europe.

EManEX

Yes and BMW, Toyota, and I believe Honda also have some hydrogen cars out there but they are not sold to the general public for various obious reasons.

The article I read a few months ago, GM was calling on the Gov. to unclassify hydrogen technology to make it more affordable and less costly for the consummer.
