Ethanol Day 2006 was held on February 1 at the SD Legislature in Pierre. Although no “hot” issues concerning ethanol were on the agenda, it is good to be there, issues or not. The event was organized by ACE and the SD Corn Growers. As in previous years, a noon luncheon was served in the capitol Rotunda and enjoyed by several legislators and ethanol supporters. One of the Rahal-Letterman Indy racers was present and you can one of our members, Todd Intermill behind the wheel. Looks like a tight fit and not the place to spend a Sunday afternoon at 200 mph! In 2006, Indianapolis will use 10% ethanol and go to 100% ethanol in 2007. Thanks Todd for the photograph!
