By focusing on school buses, we can affect the health and wellbeing of the people most susceptible to that pollution – our children – today.” ~ Julia Roberts
23. “I’m not guaranteeing what we come up with will be better for the planet. There is ethanol, for instance, which actually nets out with more pollution at greater expense, and more harm to the environment than petroleum, but we’ll come up with something.” ~ P. J. O’Rourke

I was alone a lot and I invented myself – I lived through the radio and through my imagination.” ~ George Carlin

Wine is, in fact, one of the most complex of all beverages: the fruit of a soil, climate, and vintage, digested by a fungus through a process guided by the culture, vision, and skill of an individual man or woman.” ~ Neel Burton
35. “Ethanol and biodiesel allow people to burn a cleaner form of energy.” ~ Mark Kennedy
36. “From the starch-heavy ‘food pyramid’ to ethanol fuel, the government adopts programs not because they are right but because they gains votes, money or political power or solve problems that politics has already created, such as silos full of subsidized wheat or a shortage of gasoline due to the maze of controls on refining.” ~ Robert Prechter

39. “We’re still promoting stupid wasteful behavior in agribusiness – everything from ethanol production for cars to genetically modified crops. In commerce just about everything we do politically is in the service of Walmart and the systems tied to it. In transportation, we could, for instance, have compelled General Motors to produce railroad rolling stock as a condition of their bail-out, but we didn’t do that. Instead, we’re chasing the phantom of electric cars – and, believe me, we are going to be mortally disappointed how that works out.” ~ James Howard Kunstler
