    the dillima is still fresh, the downfall of world economy is also contributed by high prices of oil. I believe alternative fuel solution will stay... unless by 2012 40$/barrel parin.

    btw, recently, I have seen increase of vehicle running on the roads again. or maybe just a normal figures on holiday season?...

    Normal for the season. This is the season I cut down on my driving simply because it takes me more than twice the time to get anywhere in the metro.

    Just like yesterday, what typically takes me 30 minutes to drive, took me nearly 1.5 hours because of the bumper-to-bumper traffic at all the roads between point A and B.

    Holidays and also those people who abandoned their cars when fuel prices was sky high are now driving their cars again

    yup oil is part of it

    $140+ per barrel oil pushed the world into recession

With world oil price at /barrel and dropping.... Is ethanol still viable?
