If you disagree with the data presented, then prove this data wrong. Otherwise, be respectful and courteous. Thank you.
Of course, I have proved Rooster's calculations wrong. Rooster admits to cherry-picking a warm December month for 10% ethanol blend tanks, & a cold January month for ethanol-free tanks. Immediately, that cancels Rooster's post entirely, due to bias. He never should have posted.

Separate from the biased separate months, you state that it is "only" 0.2% FE difference, which is due to at least two rounding errors, errors which rooster chose to keep, because they favored his argument. Again, bias!

Those rounding errors of 0.2% FE are a difference of 5.7% between rooster & me! Hey, we're discussing adding only 10% ethanol to gasoline here. Rounding errors alone can really fudge differences in 10% discussions. & the differing months REALLY biased these 10% discussions.

As we have been discussing here, I favor years long data, rooster favors short term data, which in this case, he cherry-picked at least three times to make biased conclusions.
