Any of you guys listen to Car Talk on NPR?

I had it on the radio last Saturday as I drove home from my martial arts class (a good 30 mile trek).

At some point during the show they did their usual "brought to you in part by..." and rattled off a bunch of commercials. One was for EPIC:

As past studies are being proven correct ( http://www.cato.org/pub_display.php?pub_id=7308 ) and food prices are driven higher, many of us have come to the conclusion that fuel ethanol represents a false economy.

Just recently the Tappet Brothers had their own episode of NOVA, where they -- get this -- established that ethanol really wasn't all it's cracked up to be.

These guys are funny...but they should stick to taking money from Toyota.
