...Debate on Clean Energy While Michael Grunwald's cover story on the emerging ethanol industry was both chilling and truthful, it's damaging to demonize the global effort to develop clean fuels as "myth," "scam" and "hype" [April 7]. It is no myth that thousands of scientists and their teams are working feverishly to create biofuels from nonfood plants grown on land unsuitable for food production. The science is still young. We could not have landed on the moon without first launching a primitive plane at Kitty Hawk. But we will succeed. Mark Beyer, Detroit...

We could not have landed on the moon without first launching at Kitty Hawk. We're getting better at this every day. Mark Beyer, DETROIT...
...humming melodies, Drummey and the rest of the band ready the tour van and equipment for the long haul ahead. Before we part ways, I ask the two what would happen if “Love the Future” tanks and all of Chester French’s hype, acclaim, and access to free jeans are suddenly gone. What would this mean for Wallach’s theory that taste trumps all? Though their seemingly unassailable confidence would seem to have precluded the notion from their minds, failure is an outcome the two have actually considered...
