GL: Ethanol in fuel.

[Ralph Yost (home)]

Yes on election day elect conservatives that will allow oil drilling where 
it can be extracted and will allow wind mill farms in the ocean.
I live near Atlantic City. Our nitwit politicians will not allow oil 
drilling or wind mill farms because they want to "protect" the shore area 
and the environment. However if you consider the Gulf of Mexico region, 
where they have MANY hurricanes, you will note the complete lack of oil 
spills from oil drilling rigs. And wind mill farms are in the oceans all 
around the world, especially in Europe, operating very safely.
How does all of this effect the Great Loop? Many of the Loopers are retired. 
These erroneous government policies lead to less supply while demand 
increases over time and it will continue to cost the Loopers more money to 
do the Loop in energy (fuel) costs. We have already seen reports on this 
list of diesel fuel >$3/gallon, which is ridiculous as it is processed less 
and not subject to highway taxation.
How can we begin to plan for our Loop trip in 5 years ? What will the fuel 
costs be?
