I voted No. By letting uninformed people bring up these things it gives us a teaching opportunity and a chance to point them towards things that will work. Is it annoying at times? Sure, but if you don't want to deal with this sort of thing then just skip over the topic. Hey, everyone has to start somewhere and it might as well be here. After all, why police this forum so hard that it becomes a club for a small group of informed individuals that already know it all? I say that if someone is willing to ask a question and learn from the answer, they should be welcome here. The more people we can teach to save fuel, the less oil we need from unstable parts of the world.
