The Ethanol Papers - Paperturn manuscript - Flipbook - Page 283
Fuel requirements: "Gasoline up to 10% ethyl alcohol/90% unleaded is acceptable. E15, E20 and E85 are NOT approved and should NOT be used".
So, are you saying that the MANUFACTURERS know as little about ethanol as
well???
The pipelines: You conceded that ethanol is NOT shipped through the pipelines,
Several articles that I have read state that is because of the corrosive effect of
ethanol.
I should have mentioned in my previous post that the recreational boating industry and the private aircraft owners have NO interest in alcohol based
fuels...that comes from owners of both.
You also listed several links to articles that I could reference to better my
knowledge of ethanol. It was not necessary for me to read these as I have been
following this story for many years and there are as many detractors as there
are advocates.
Articles began appearing in the media as early as 2007 about the harmful effects of ethanol fuels. An article penned by Kenneth P. Green appeared on the
"American Enterprise Institute's" website on July 29, 2008, gave us an interesting view of the ethanol vs petroleum debate: https://www.aei.org/publication/ethanol-and-the-environment.
A more recent article published just last year by the Yale School of Forestry and
Environmental Studies titled "The Case Against More Ethanol: It's Simply Bad
For The Environment" is also interesting reading and blows holes in your approach to cropland/seaweed use to make ethanol. (The article can be found at

Argue with their "credentials"!
About your website: I had posted my comment via Disqus. The ONLY reason
for linking to your website was the fact that a Bob Gordon had used the word
"stupid" in referring to President Trump's impending trip to talk to automakers
about the controversial EPA ruling. My first impression was of another liberal
Trump hating journalist using the internet to level a criticism of the President...and I don't think that was wrong. You say that your website does not use
Disqus and that was the reason I was unable to post on your website.
