Any bicycle rode on the street should have license plate, and follow the same laws as cars. I’m tired of paying for bike lanes for the use of aggressive rogue bike riders.

Biggest one for me after some thought about it.......Cell phones, and the rude people that cannot put them down to even eat at the dining table. Mostly women, but some guys do it too. The damn things are an addiction....

[Forkin' Crazy]

How about NOT using your cruise control and either staying in my blind spot after I pass you, or passing me 4 or 5 times hanging me up in other traffic. I had some ass hole do that the other day. My ole Dodge will run 115 mph and let out a LOT of black smoke, as the schmuck in my wake found out.

Ya they get right on your ass when your in the fast lane and then when you move over for them they slow down and back off...

Did I hear it right, that Florida just passed a No Cell Phones While Driving law, or somesuch?

[olboatman]

Been like that up here for yrs....makes no difference as they just ignore the law. Never see any citations for it in the police log!
I tell everyone if they are in an accident to have the phone records checked.

Ethanol fuel
I LOVE ethanol fuel.
Keeps a LOT of people busy!
Just gotta keep on top of your stuff.

The problem is that it does not make the power that pure gasoline makes....less BTUs!

[LakeFever]

Ethanol is good for boosting or super high SCR and also has better latent heat evaporation than gas but it is hydrophilic. IIRC the V8 rude that set the record ran methanol which is very similar to ethanol. If set up for it its a great fuel but olboatman is spot on its less energy dense so you need to flow a ton more of it to equal gas

[Tin Man 2]

Ethanol is a political fuel, it not only attracts water but attracts farmer votes as well. Another example of Government screwing up the free market.

[SS Minnow]

The only people that like Ethanol are the farmers that get subsides for it.
Or as us working smucks see it, corporate welfare.

Ethanol was originally added to gasoline because of the shortage of oil. Back then there was a .10-.25 difference to get hi octane. Now it costs $1 per gallon and sometimes even more for hi octane with no ethanol.

Now we are actually producing so much oil that we are exporting it, and in record quantities. So why are we still adding ethanol to it? Why are we still subsidizing farmers for growing it?

[Forkin' Crazy]

LOL!!! Funny, the 30+ years I farmed I never got a subsidy for ethanol. Even when I grew corn.

You guys have it wrong. Those subsidies go to the ethanol plants and infrastructure for those plants, mixing pumps, etc.

Ethanol is an oxygenater that took the place of MTBE, a known carcinogen. Bad stuff to have in your water supply. It is fine as long as MTBE is burned, but put a jet ski, etc on the limiter and you then have it in the water.

Ya. Tell them how many gallons of water it takes to produce a gallon of ethanol....

… and by all accounts we are running out of drinkable water.

So pick out the part of my post that is inaccurate.

[TraceF3]

None of it.

I'm just saying most people don't realize that it takes MORE water to produce ethanol than it does gasoline.

Confirm or deny......

i never made the claim that you in particular recieved any subsidy for growing or not growing corn. But, it is happening. Was it about two years ago it was being pushed to up etanol in gas to 15%? Not profitable, but hey, lets bump it up 50%, right?

Not trying to argue, but it is too easy to follow the money trail here.

[Slough]

Ga did it a year ago and yes they will pull you over. Ticket with points on your license.

There is no subsidy for the farmers for growing corn for ethanol. There was (maybe still is ) one for the mixers. Farmers like it because it drives corn prices up.

[Slough]

When they built the plant down here, it was told it took 1 gallon of natural gas to make 1 gallon of ethanol.

Not according to the article I linked. 10 billion in 2017 alone. Tax breaks and incentives, subsidies come in many different forms

Again, not looking to start something, but natural gas is sold/calculated by weight, not volume.

Not saying farmers don't get subsidies, just not a subsidy for growing corn to be used in ethanol only.

Just repeating what was told when they built the plant here and had to tap into a major pipe line to operate.

Fair enough. I do agree with you there.
I will also add that I would take advantage of any and all tax breaks and what not. Hell, I do that now.
Last year I used about 20k in grants to restore properties I own as a neighborhood beautification deal. Was only good for making the building look good. Was going to do it anyway, but now we split the bill? Where do I sign? How do I make it happen?

It took time, effort, and me putting up the money, but in the end I benefit off of the taxpayers. YAH for me, I guess.

If you didn't take advantage of it, someone else would.
