It's true, we don't have lightbulbs. That's why Torvalds moved here - he prefers the kerosene lamps and candles that light the OSDL.
Some find it odd that we could have the world's largest Wifi network and one of the largest redundant fiber networks on the planet, and yet still lack the mastery of incandescent lighting, but it makes perfect sense to us.
Sure hope not. I live there. And judging by how thick and expansive that plate of basalt is (I was a rock collector as a kid, so it was a VERY boring place to live... 'oh yeah! I found another PIECE OF BASALT WOOO'), there'd be pretty much no question of avoiding it.
It is true that ethanol production in the US is woefully inefficient; so much so that you cannot use ethanol-powered equipment to produce the stuff. This should not be considered an indictment of ethanol, just our production method - corn.
Brazil's ethanol production facilities generate enough energy to be self-sufficient by burning thier waste products, allowing them to consider the ethanol a net gain. They use sugar cane - a far better ethanol crop than corn.

Washington or Idaho might.
