I hear this right? I just caught the end of the story.


I wouldn't think so. The start-up and logistic costs would be
astronomical.

On the other hand, Wal-Mart IS going into the E85 business (the 85%
Ethanol fuel). They would have very little competition - and of course
very little market for a while). And this is not a miss-heard statement
nor a rumor.

That's awesome!!! It's probably the only positive thing I can think of
about Wal-Mart.



You don't think lying to customers all day long is a good thing? :-)
