Ask your local bartender for a beverage made with Ethanol (180-proof grain alcohol) and you'll probably end the night doing some drunk dialing or praying to the porcelain gods. Ask a good chemist to denature it by adding methanol, isopropanol or a few other chemicals, then mix it with normal gasoline and you'll end up with E-85 Ethanol Fuel. Issue 1032 of the latest Rolling Stone features Jeff Goodell's thought-provoking article about America's endorsement of E-85 made from corn. If you can't manage to get through the editorial staff gushing over Sean Kingston and the horrid shot of Axl Rose in a pair of assless leather chaps (pause), then you can visit the links below:
