New production method for ethanol.

Saw this article for anyone that's interested.

Key points:
This method costs 1$/gallon vs 50% more cost corn method.
This method can use many kinds of biomass to make ethanol.

In all seriousness, this is one of the better articles relating to E85 I have read in awhile. Thanks Roger! I am saving every good article I can find these days, and this one makes the cut.
