METHANOL IS TOXIC, BUT OTHERWISE, ARTICLE IS GOOD

To the Editor:

You’ll probably get a lot of response on this one.

Methanol is derived from wood and is highly toxic. It is not present in hard liquor. Ethanol is the alcohol that is consumed by humans. Both are good fuels for combustion and ethanol is commonly added to gasoline to reduce Co-emissions.

Excellent article otherwise. This invention could eliminate many toxic heavy metals from the environment in addition to vastly improving the utility of mobile phones and computers.

Thanks for finding the technology gems out there.
