News Flash: Jim Inhofe Might be Right About Something

authordefault
By Richard Littlemore

The entertaining blog Jim Inhot Water tees off on the hapless Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe, on this occasion for his hostility to alternative fuels, and especially corn-based ethanol. But, coincidentally, the equally entertaining Bob Park also attacks ethanol again in this instalment of his weekly e-newsletter.
Park, for those unfamiliar, is a true scientific skeptic, with a wary eye for a fraud and a sharp wit. We highly recommend signing up for his listservice.
Inhofe, for those unfamiliar, is a climate change skeptic, with a wary eye for his next cheque from the oil and gas industry. We would generally recommend that disagreeing with him on any science subject would be a safe bet.
Just goes to show how important it is to keep an open mind.
