Mixed Signals
by TChris
After the president inspected swithgrass samples at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory yesterday, he "picked up a bottle of clear-colored ethanol and smelled it." No word on whether the president then downed it like a shot of Jagermeister, but ethanol ingestion might explain the "mixed signals" that his administration was sending prior to his visit.
Two weeks ago, 32 workers, including eight researchers, were laid off at the lab. Then, over the weekend, just before Bush's planned visit, the government restored the jobs.
