An American cannot find gasoline sans ethanol anywhere in NJ or most of SE PA.<br /><br />Third; how much will it cost the federal government and automotive factories, etc, etc to conduct the testing and research to even make such determinations and the total costs to put in on every vehicle.<br /><br />Sorry... this is STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />Finally, electric cars are a fringin' hoax. <br />Who will pay the high costs for the U.S. electricity 'infrastructure'? Doesn't anyone realize electricity companies will be charging a fortune per kilowatt hour; not now, while luring folks to abandon the internal combustion engine for the electric car, but once it has a captive audience?<br /><br />All of this is so lame given the nation's needs at this time.. no matter what we do, it will amount to nothing more than the size of an ant when compared to the true power of global warming.<br /> <br />Lastly, why on earth should i care a rat's ass when the Chinese have already benefited from the death of our military in Iraq; their hoarding of petroleum world wide, even in Saudi Arabia working together on a brand new refinery?<br /><br />The lunatics are running the Federal show....<br />sorry, but this sh*t doesn't matter to me when sugar costs $3.00 to $5.00 a lb., a three fold increase in three years due to commodity speculators.Frank Brillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17285491719186925507noreply@blogger.com
