Comments on: Speaking of stopping, the horrid corn-a-hole bill is up in the Senate TODAY! http://norunnyeggs.com/2008/01/speaking-of-stopping-the-horrid-corn-a-hole-bill-is-up-in-the-senate-today/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Drove to Iowa on a tank of E-10, returned on E-85. Same roads, same speeds, same cruise control (for practical purposes, anyway.) E-85 gets 15% less mileage on my flex-fuel FoMoCo than E-10. So if you want equal price/mile, price of E-85 would have to be 15% (or greater) LESS than E-10. Good luck with that, even with the Federal subsidies--and guess who pays for THOSE?
