      Alcohol Can Be a Gas: Debunking Myths About Ethanol
      Very informative, thanks.
      I have invested in Aventine, because of their position as producer-distributor and the quality of the management. In spite of that, it's not going well. What non-corn ethanol companies would you suggest ?

      Price of Oil: Speculation vs. Fundamentals
      Excellent article. (OK, perhaps I think that because it confirms what I have been thinking).

      As for nuclear energy: the only thing that makes sense to me is to use renewable energy sources. The price of putting them to use will decrease and keep decreasing over over time, which cannot be said about any finite source, fossile or other. Uranium is just a way of putting off what we'll need to do soner or later. Sooner is better for us and for the planet.

      Why I'm Selling Pacific Ethanol
      Aventine seem sto handle the business best. It may get a boost from Verasun's and Pacific's hardships.

      Ike vs. Refining Capacity and Oil Price
      So what you're saying is, basically: we don't know if prices will go up or down.
      Gee.

      Ethanol: Our Answer to Reducing U.S. Dependence on Foreign Oil
      What is needed is
      1 using less energy
      2 switching to a vegetarian diet (healthier and 5 times more efficient)
      3 switching to electric cars

      Ethanol will be part of the bridge to the future, but only for perhaps 5 years.

      Which Way for the Prices of Oil and Gold?
      Given the numbers of dollars that the US economy needs to survive, how will the dollar rise against the euro ? I can't see it heppening.

      Exxon Mobil, Shell: Demand and Production Issues Weigh on Shares Despite Record Income
      Cheesehead, Shell is still suffering from the downward adjustement of its assets 3 years back. It has been (imho) undervalued ever since.

      Oil Prices Finally Changing Consumer Behavior
      IMHO people are doing now what they should have done decades ago. Apparently they can do without all those miles.
      The reason why the US is not participating in the Kyoto treaty and the Eu is, as far as I can see is this: there are to many people totaly focussud on the conomy in the US, so politicians have very little rom to move. If they wanted to move in the first place, which is doubtful.
      As for INdia taking over the miles not driven: let's face it, we in the EU and the US have for decades been obcneley wealthy and wasteful. And now we should continue destrying this planet because we can't allow India or China to have an advantage ? How penny wise is that ? You guys donlt have children ?
      As for socialism: I live in Holland. Better social laws, better health coverage, more liberal laws on drugs with infinite better results, fewer people in prison, less cime, better environment laws, better economy.
      Don't get me wrong, I love the US. And IMO its only chance of not going down the drain in all ways is called Obama. Oil is over, better be among the first to make the transfer.

      Buying Gold for Oil Like George Soros
      There are countless passible 'historic ratios'. The question is, if a ratio is way off its historic value, must we conclude that it will move back to it ? Or may we conclude that there simply wasn't any historic ratio in the first place ?
      I would say in this case: the latter. There is no ratio behind the ratio, so to speak.

      Agreeing with Emerald: the impression I have is that Obama at least UNDERSTANDS the situation.

      VeraSun Energy and the Ethanol Debate
      Talk about no-brainers. Are we eating too much meat ? Of course we are. There are so many reasons for eating less or no meat, I won't even start. Just this: a meta study of 7000 different researches worldwide, taking 6 years and published recently, showed conclusively that meat and meatproducts raise the risk of colon cancer considerably.
      I'd say, lets first stop eating so much meat and then see how ehtanol affects cornprices.

      Whole Foods Market: On Track for Organic Success
      It is true that WF also sells not organic foods. And that is the only inaccuracy I can see. One thing that wasn't mentioned is the international expansion that has already started. WF is the future, no question about it. I agree this is the time to buy the stock, and just did.
