What does ethanol and its blends have over bio-diesel?

This is what I know: Ethanol and Bio-diesel (bio-fuels) are both generaly made from corn but most plant matter can be used. Also both pollute similairly to non bio-fuels. The main differences deal with production and the powerplant.
Ethanol is currently requires more energy to produce than it releases in combustion. It also is less efficent [...]

Cellulosic Ethanol, Alagae Biodiesel, Hydrogren. When? How much?

I’ve become convinced we could begin accelerating Cellulosic ethanol production immediately. (One cautionary voice still rings slightly in my ears however: "We’ve been "5 years away from" for 40 years…." ) Never the less I think we’re ready now.
When? say you? I’ve read most of the "Questions" that result from a search of [...]

How difficult would it be to create a conversion kit for car engines?

using alternative/renewable fuel sources?
I asked this question a few years ago when I first experimented with biodiesel and there are conversion kits for diesel engines but what about regular engines. It seems like it should be do-able since most gasoline contains a certain percentage of ethanol (as one example)
Has anyone considered this?
