Why would we want to subsidize an inferior, inefficient, lousy, air
fouling product like E85? Don't give me that crap about it doesn't smell.
It most certainly does leave an acrid smell in the air, and it's worse
than gasoline. People who have asthma have a hard time breathing in
places where E85 is heavily used. Detroit, Dallas, St Louis are three I
know of.
