If everyone would do this, it would snowball to millions.

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.

(By no "net net energy gain", I mean that the energy used to sow, harvest, produce, add and transport the ethanol needs to be weighed against the energy provided by that ethanol. I assume that if it were cost-effective no subsidies would be needed.)

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!
