there is an  Ethanol plant  set to start   5miles  from me.    It does not 
have to be transported in any  special  trailer at all.   Pipe lines work the 
best  but    therare not enough of those.   Railcars work  next best but there 
are not enough of those either.    
Yes it would be best if a refinery were next to the ethanol plant  but  you 
know  no new refineries are going to be built away from  the oil  (for 
transport reasons)   same with  ethanol you dont built   it away from the main 
ingreadiant.    what would be  best    (I hate to say it)  would be  to  build   
ethanol plants  in texas near refineries  ----   ethanol plants that run not on 
corn but on  cellulose ( I know it  sounds like a sellout).
 
Now if we can get the railroads in  better operational  status  then everyone 
could win from the situation.

Ralf  and others on this ethanol fling. Thay are building a plant to 
turn it to  fuel[corn] not to far from me.[ Clearfield] 20-30 miles it 
is in the high  millions to build and really out in the country. From 
what little i have  read on this stuff it can't be piped must be 
hauled in special trailers.  Don't make much sense to me unless they 
build a oil  processing plant  near it.
But it is not what we think or know it is what gov says will  work?
