On the flex fuel Suburban I looked at the window spec sheet stated that it got 21mpg on the highway on gasoline and 17 on e-10. Thats nearly a 20 percent drop in fuel mileage. So adding 10% corn squeezins got us 20% less milage meaning we are burning 10% more gasoline than we would have to start with. So how is this "green"? How is this helping us get away from fossil fuels? It seems like ...as Penn and Teller would put it..............Bull spit.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
