Switching to Ethanol?

Ok so this kinda sparked the question in my head when I was reading the gas thread and has been bugging me since then. I;ve been looking into it but havent found the answers and opinions. so the thing is it was stated before that Ethanol is harder to burn (higher octane rating) cheaper and better for well turbo cars right? the down side. it would mess with the rubber seals that come OEM with the car. and the Rubber along the fuel system as well. not to mention I am pretty sure we gotta retune our cars and what not. but like. seriously who would consider switching over to Ethanol? I mean if what it seems is true wouldn;t it be a good cost effect? Better Fuel, Higher Octane rating, Lower Price. I mean sure alot of work will have to be done (redo the fuel system, retune the car, and find Ethanol Stations near by) who would actually consider this or would like to go further into this topic because this seems pretty intresting and it would not be a bad Idea for an alternative Fuel. maby we'll even get something from the state by switching over to Ethanol? (Emissions for cali I hope) who knows. what you all think???
