That's been our experience as well. The process of putting together the
grant application spurred us to do some worthwhile thinking about how
we're approaching the challenge of converting biomass into fuel, but
after reading the commentary from the review committee, I came away with
the impression that they weren't ready to seriously consider any
non-traditional utilization routes.
If someone is looking to convert, say, beetle killed trees into fence
posts, that's something they can envision; converting forest waste to
liquid fuels, not so much.
