    There is one made from Kudzu that is supposed to be going in Tennessee as well some time soon. That one says they are making methanol though, not ethanol. I guess they are going to attempt to use it as a form of bio-diesel.

    Kudzu.... That almost sounds like a joke, but it's brilliant. What grows faster than kudzu?

    I admit I had to look it up. Some bamboo can grow nearly a foot per day. Seems some types of sea weed might be in the list also.

    That's funny. Some lady asked me where she could find a gas station that offers this fuel.
    But I'm guessing there aren't any gas stations around the Atlanta area that do? She thought it was required because of the flex fuel badge on her whatever GM. Lulz.

    You can find E85 around Atlanta. There are two stations within 5 miles of my house.
