Its unacceptable because the diluted ethanol is sold to us at the same rate as gas even though it has less BTU's
I have a Propane fireplace even though i have Natural gas lines threw my neighborhood. Reason is Propane has 10% more BTU then Natural gas. Who wants to pay more for less?
Who wants ethanol ? is it the consumer or business who wants it.
I am really hoping the future is without ICE's.

Why don't they bump the BTU's up on it ? seems like a scam, low output fuel for a 10% percent increase on your fuel bills.

Damn that Ethanol, lol
