#1 Regardless of the circumstance, the accidental death of small children are tragic.

Remember, the French still have a very active government service branch called Deminieurs (sp?) who are pulling out tons of unexploded ordnance every year. Mostly WWI, some WWII, some Chemical Warfare.

I think the same is true for areas around St. Petersburg, Russia and obviously Afghanistan.

Unexploded ordnance will be a problems for decades to come.

#2 why can't we just use ethanol to power cars?

It's a whole lot easier, we already use it in race cars, so it wouldn't be hard to modify production of consumer cars to take ethanol.

Then you just make ethanol by growing corn or non-THC hemp! A closed carbon cycle that will satisfy the greenies, and we no longer have to buy oil from Islamist fantatics!

Let them go back to the stone ages where they belong.
