What would be the best biomass feedstock to A.B.E fermentation for butanol, ethanol and acetone.. is industrial hemp really better than the rest? !?

and is it better to use fermentation or pyrolysis for the biomass??

Before I begin to explain this, for everyone’s knowledge, i am NOT talking about the drug. I am referring to the actual plant that is very useful for fibers and its oils and such. i know science forums are cracking down on people talking about drugs, but what I am talking about is something completely different.

Ok, as you may or may not know. Industrial hemp is a plant that actually is very resourceful. it can make anything from clothing, food, etc. there is a growing interest to use it again, such as car manufactures and is strictly grown under harsh authorities.

Now i don't, in any way, promote drugs. if anything, I am against it. But is plant is actually anti-drug, meaning it would really keep you from being under the influence.

Now i got a question, this plant is very good for the soil. Putting nitrogen in the soil, things like that. Now what if i were to buy large chucks of land in Africa say.. Namibia, and i plant it Africa’s soil, or maybe in the desert.. as far up as Mali can it really stand up to the harsh conditions?

Does anyone know how exactly crude oil is extracted out of the juices of the gopher plant. i know a man named melvin calvin did it. and it was reported that a barrel of crude could be produced at twenty dollars! how?

Why are there terrorist attacks on innocent people? why do people need to die? for what? geed? money? power? people die because a few men are upset with us? the terror in england, i won't understand.. why england? they are peaceful people who didn't do anything? if anyone would attack then id be the french, because of the long history. but france won't attack england. but why is it that a few people got to spoil the party of the world by killing? why can't there be a cease-fire with these people and make it right? how many people have died so far? 30,000? we've lost about over a 1,000 in the iraq war, and people talk about pulling out because of such a large loss..

I do not argue that, we all know about world war 1 and world war 2, where millions apon millions where killed. a single life lost, is a horrible thing. i recently read, stephen hawking asked on a yahoo forum?!? i think.. about how can humans expect to survive the next 100 years! im 16 years young. i am right there when that would happen. i am a american, i personally hate what america is doing. i strongly disagree about what choices are made here. our own president invaded iraq on weapons of mass destruction. we didn't find any. maybe because there wasn't any! i don't see saddam having the balls to create something and then push war. why would he? realize for a sec. that if he had done this.. that the whole world would of been after him and his army. but we've easily crushed them. there is no army in iraq expect the american's and a hand full of other's from around the world.

I don't mean anything toward our boys over there.. they are our pride. but doesn't it seem more toward the truth if we went over there for oil? im not shocked. greed has gone too far.. oil is soo toxic, yet worth so much to so many. ask anybody! anybody in chemistry forum and they'll tell you about how the stuff is killing the atmosphere, how cancer seems to be coming from pollution, how we've killed for it. is it worth to die for something that will later snowball into the end of the world?

i ask a single person, anybody, from anywhere, to say to me how things are going in the right direction.

It seems that very important days, people remember where they were that day when they found out. for example, at the time of the kennedy assasination, everyone remembers down to details where they were and how they found out. more recently, the 9-11 attacks on america and the terror also going on in europe. how you'd find out?
