I think it will take a little time for the economic fallout to take place - will gas prices go up? Will food cost go down?  Wait and see!

No more snowmobile burn-downs due to water-laden ethanol, for one.

No way!

However, it ends a tariff on Brazilian ethanol

Brazilians pay about $1/gallon for their ethanol fuel (E100)

Something tells me this means MORE ethanol not less because without the tariff it will be far cheaper.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
