Wow Anna, that is the best morning news wrap up I've seen in a while. Excellent

If you're tired of following a losing sports team, the sounders are currently in 2nd place... :)

The biofuel study points out corn ethanol has a net climate change increase (0.9 vs gasoline 1.0, smaller is bad)

Switchgrass and cane sugar ethanol, both made from low fertilizer low water crops are very good for reducing climate change

Blue green algae is good for polluted water reclamation but uses lots of water for biofuel (good here, bad elsewhere)

I think the Everest accident was reported as an avalanche, not a landslide.
