Headlines about this are deceptive because all the U.S. Air Force did
was decide not to build their coal-to-liquid fuel plant at this Montana
site because it would have increased risk to their "341 Missile Wing's
nuclear mission."  The B-1 and other bombers are already certified to
run on coal-to-liquid transpo fuel, and bio-fuels, and they're already
buying it from South Africa.
