Most people eat lettuce for fact that it is natural. While the nutrients in the solution the lettuce is growing in may be natural, its still not a natural process of growing lettuce, otherwise lettuce would automatically include the nutrients calcium and potassium. In addition, I hope veggies are never grown in such a manner that it is normal to artificially grow the only food the American culture has left that is truly natural.

Perhaps you should edit to make that distinction, as well as mention that cellulosic ethanol technologies aren't yet marketable. Until the enzymes are perfected and the costs come down, switchgrass pretty much only functions as a native grass and wildlife cover.

I'm curious, however, how does one safely dispose of ones lawn clippings to avoid recontamination as they break down? The bio-sensing turf sounds very interesting.
