Seems a bit of a stretch. How about if they provide thousands of gallons of 95-5 or 90-10 fuel to a fleet of taxi cabs for a few months? That would be worth noting.

As a Proof of Concept, it's a success. Running something that isn't an effective fuel would have stalled the vehicle. Five percent "water + emulsifier," the car would have stayed in California. Though the Veggie folks did themselves no favor by using wording that essentially implies the car was run solely by algae, this is more the norm than exception in the whole alternative-fuel arena. Biodiesel at the pump is virtually always a blend, B2- or B-5 (2% or 5% biodiesel). Biofuel home heating oil: also usually 5%.

Methanol is the REAL threat to the oil industry! Even Alan Greenspan couldn't understand why ethanol was picked as an oil additive, when methanol could replace oil for good. The best way to obfuscate this is to pull stunts like this from supposedly "well meaning" greenie enthusiasts, but end up discrediting the entire research field! I smell an oil concern rat! The petroleum and other industries should be concerned, as the way it looks right now algae could manufacture methanol in HUGE quantities! Don't underestimate diatomic life forces!

Reading or viewing what a journalist has covered in the past is just good research, which is ethical and professional. The source is the journalist. As noted, the research shouldn't be used for anything other than background, not rejecting an application for credentials to cover the war or anything else.

This is micromanaged White House War Coverage, which smacks of bad judgement and high expectations of people in government. And for PR firms to do anything for money, especially if it is a gravy train of funds from the government is unreal. Where is the PRSA Ethics committee when you need one??? Hey,
