The truth of "reduced gas mileage" ought to strike a cord in these times with rising gas prices.

If someone has a link to factual data that clearly shows how there is no net energy gain by adding ethanol to our gas, please get that added to the petition.

Dear Rotorheads,

I have just read and signed the petition: "Keep ethanol-free gas widely available".

Please take a moment to read about this important issue, and join me in signing the petition. It takes just 30 seconds, but can truly make a difference. We are trying to reach 10000 signatures - please sign here: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/keep-pure-gas/

Once you have signed, you can help even more by asking your friends and family to sign as well.

Thank you!
