Pumps' Perplexities

With everything else on top of St. Croix, now let us add
Ethanol to the problem......All those nice "feeley" people
who complain about pollution have gotten their way....

The gasoline companies will now produce gas with 10%
of ethanol in order to improve your driving experience
and help the "ozone layer"......It will be sold in the
populous areas from New Hampshire to Virginia.....

As usual things will not go well and it will cost you more
money......#1 There is not enough US produced ethanol so
we will have to import more of it along with the basic crude
oil.....#2 If the underground gasoline storage tanks are
not properly cleaned of water and residue, at your local
gas station, the "new ethanol gasoline" will cause your
vehicle to get poor mileage.....#3 Since there will not be
enough of this special gasoline blend, when manufactured,
to cover everyone's needs there will be shortages and
the laws of supply and demand will apply and the price
per gallon WILL GO UP again.......

The next time you hear anyone complain about the price
of gasoline tell him to take his problem up with an
"environmentalist".....Or, anyone riding a Vespa.....Pumps
