#1 There are ethanol free pumps all over Florida because of marine engines. Such product can be found by visiting pure-gas.org

#2 The Iowa and New Hampshire primaries are the other side of the push to eliminate the Electoral College. "First in the nation" primary status should be outlawed. Make 'em all at the same time just like elections. Screw the people in Dixville Notch.

#6 Same is true in Wisconsin for snowmobiles and small engines.

Ethanol doesn't play nice with a 10,000 RPM Weed Trimmer (or other hi-rev) motor.

#7 You can still purchase gasoline without Ethanol, but the additives removal will cost a bit more.

#9 If it was shut down there would be no place to put the grain. Why? Some of the richest farm areas have tore down their graineries and got rid of their dryers. Why? It is put as is into nearby giant "stills".
If we quit putting ethanol in gasoline the corn would just rot. Maybe it implies other crops better for the land should be grown. Whatever...

#10 Of course the way it's going the replacement crop will first be hemp and then the higher quality smoking weed.

#11 Ethanol free is rare around here but I found that the little general store nearest us has it - got some today for the small engine tools.
