[edit] NO to merging with Ethanol

This article is needed as a source of information about the processing of corn into ethanol--an important issue politically and economically. I searched for it to glean more info about the industrial process. In fact, there was very little. More is needed. There is not one word about the process in the ethanol article, which only peripherally concerns corn. Furthermore, it's big puffy article and one has to search tediously through it to find information on the processing of corn into ethanol. This needs FURTHER specialization. Not less. PS: can someone gives more information about the process? NaySay 18:37, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

I think this artical is seriously biased or using very outdated information, a google search's first page provides pages with several studies that refute the artical's anti-ethanol stance:
