Gasohol

They buy it by the tankload at the terminal in Portland ME before the bad stuff goes in. Blue skies! -- Dan Ford The joke on us all is that gas pumped to your local distribution terminal has no alcohol in it... At the distribution terminal are huge tanks of gas, and smaller tnaks of alcohol, dye, additives, etc... The driver pulls up with his tanker... Keys in who the gas is for Shell, Marathon, ETC.and what the octane rating is and the computer selects the appropriate base stock of gasoline and mixes in the proper additives and dyes as it pumps the load to his tanker, including the alcohol... We are being hosed by the oil companies, in cahoots with the government, in more ways than just price... It is true that all oil companies fuel is essentially the same, and has been true for a long time. Explain how the government is somewhow in "cahoots" with the oil companies? Federal, state and local governments together make more on a gallon of gas than the oil companies do. http://www.redplanetcartoons.com/wor...7gasprices.jpg |
