Yeah, hound 'em! Re growing soy though, there are better crops. And there's this, from another list: "NPR just had a program on about Biodiesel and part of the information was the issue that storage for soy oil has now reached epidemic proportions. The US has the largest tank farm in the world to store the oil. The soy cakes are well used, but the oil is surplus, to the tune of a billion, YES, BILLION PLUS gallons the feds/soy growers can't get rid of. I believe the tank farm is in Minnesota, per the program." There are better ways of farming too. Energy farming, food farming, sustainable farming can all go really well together, to everybody's benefit, from the farmer on down. Not quite what usually happens now.
