No Sheetz!

Jay Kumar posted in his Bass Blaster news update about the decision by Sheetz convenience stores to offer E15 gasoline in 60 of their North Carolina locations. Ethanol destroys outboard motors and many others, including lawn mower engines. Send Sheetz a message – “I like for my engine to RUN when I crank it!”
Some IMPORTANT numbers from Kumar and Keep America Fishing:
NC: Worst ethanol ever coming.
> Convenience store chain Sheetz announced on January 21 that it would offer E15 fuel – gas containing up to 15% ethanol – at 60 of their North Carolina locations beginning in early 2015.
Just say no to Sheetz.
From cradle to grave, corn ethanol is more polluting than gasoline by 33%, according to recent research by the EPA.
– From a KeepAmericaFishing.org post. More:
> More than 5 million acres of wildlife habitat (and counting) have been cleared and planted over to grow corn….
> Ethanol contains less energy than pure gasoline, so it’s less fuel efficient. Drivers get fewer miles to the gallon with greater concentrations of it.
> …5 gallons of water are needed to refine 1 gallon of gasoline compared to 170 gallons needed for one gallon of E10. [This is nuts!]
Write your congressmen — include as much money as you can so they’ll listen….
