Note that POTUS never mentioned corn last night. Also note Q's drop - [corn].

Got no problem with ethanol (let the tech meet the need).

And do understand the macro/micro economics of farming more than you may give credit for.

But there's way too much damn corn being grown in this country. That is not healthy for the land or the people as a whole. And if you can think beyond one growing season, it's mostly become that way because CHINA.

And farmers as a whole are way too beholden to the Big Ag corps of the world. You want cabal -- look there.

And farmers as a group (not to stereotype, but truer than not) are extremely resistant to any change.

If you want to demonize/vilify that argument, that's your right, but it only reinforces the above.

There's tons of various feedstock that can be used to make ethanol. Some like hemp can also heal the land by bioaccumulating all the junk that's been sprayed on it. Others, like cattails & kudzu, are currently 'invasive species' without an economic incentive to eradicate.

Plenty of opportunity for innovation in this space while keeping internal combustion engine tech.

Bloomberg's got about as much cred in the "flyover" as Schumer does. Let him run. This should be fun.

Exactly. Farmers will also make more profit per acre. Lots of uses for hemp most people haven't even considered yet.

However, a scientist by the name of Dr. David Mitlin, from Clarkson University in New York, says he’s found a way to manufacture hemp waste into a material that appears to be better than graphene. Dr. Mitlin and his team were able to recycle leftover hemp-based fiber, cook it down and then dissolve it until carbon nanoseheets that resembled the structure of graphene were left behind. They proceeded to build these nanosheets into powerful energy-storing supercapacitors with high energy density, thus creating a hemp based “graphene.” Essentially, Mitlin’s team discovered a process for converting fibrous hemp waste into a unique graphene-like nanomaterial that many say outperforms graphene.

Creating this graphene-like hemp material costs only a fraction of regular graphene production. Graphene costs as much as $2,000 per gram to manufacture, while the hemp-based nanomaterial can be manufactured for less than $500 per ton. To give proper perspective, there are 907,185 grams in one ton.

Concur. Actually see this as the beginning of a possible transition.

Also think it's top kek that the Coca-Colas, ADMs & Cargills of the world are going to have much higher input costs this quarter.

Also recall a letter missing, but couldn't find "chage" in the crumbs.

Do you remember which post it was?

Was the resignation "leaked" to the press which forced the issue? If so, by whom?

yep, new 4 a.m. drop. reason why they have a giant pic of her smug mug?
