A Corny Post About an Oily Problem

If the American Midwest is known for anything, it is known for corn. This is not a bad thing because corn is, for the most part, awesome. Among the many products corn can be made into is Ethanol. Ethanol sucks. I will get to Ethanol in a later post, but rest assured that Ethanol is a shitty chemical that makes a shitty crutch for people to lean on while they halfheartedly search for a viable substitute for oil. Meanwhile, oil tankers crash and BP drilling rigs leak, releasing untold gallons of oil into the gulf and releasing the dark and ancient god Cthulu.
