i don't know if it's true, but i heard that the government is going to "UP" the percentage from 10% to 15% in our fuel.  that way we'll all get that much worse fuel mileage.

If Al Gore don't like it, then I do.  I have relatives that can finally make a decent living raising corn, and I get to drive a grain truck and run a combine every year.  Al Gore is an idiot anyway.  Hoser  Cheesy

on my recent Arkansas tour I noticed quite a few service stations advertising they have regular unleaded gasoline with no ethanol.   I didn't even know you could buy gasoline any more without ethanol.    I don't think you can in Texas.....at least I havent seen it in quite a few years.

Making fuel from our food doesn't make sense......  but it is a plus for the oil companies.... takes about as much oil to raise the corn and make the ethanol as we get back.   Plus the we get to pay our tax dollars to make it work.... when it wouldn't on it's own. uglystupid2  

 coolsmiley  This is my 'sarcasim' font substitute.since we don't have one...... coolsmiley  


 coolsmiley coolsmiley Has anyone thought about turning the government over to the mafia?????  at least they would run it at a profit.... and EVERYBODY would pay their taxes... coolsmiley coolsmiley  and about the same number of crooks running the government!!!!!
