METHANE... sounds like the way to "go" for sure.
Except that MTBE has been illegal in NY and Cal---two of the biggest gas consuming states---for years. 10% ethanol has been the law in those states. Maybe now they can't use the excuse of "well, we have to refine all of these different blends for different regions" any more. Sure they can't

Gotta love an industry that tries to recoup added costs before they incur them.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
