    Every single prediction the climate "scientist" have made has come back wrong, and science is not established by consensus. There was a time when every "credible scientist" said the earth was flat and the center of the universe, this did not make them correct. Things like forest fires and the emissions of volcanos emit more greenhouse gases the humanity has since the beginning of the industrial age.

    I’m going to start a distillery to separate the ethanol from the gasoline. Then I’m going to sell off the ethanol so people will be too wasted to overthink this. Then, as that will fail, I’m going to drink the clear gas.

    all you need to do is add water to the gas, it will absorb the ethanol separate out from the gasoline, then you just need to drain off the water.

    No cars in the 60-70-0r 80 years would run on ethanol. Lead was needed in the 60 era. Can’t remember the 70 cars because they were very low HP. It would eat the gaskets in the carbs and fuel lines. You used to be able to buy high lead 102 chevron at the pump. With 10 to 12 to one compression engines you needed that and now with hard valves and seats and variable cam timing they can run low octane fuel with ethanol added. I also have a diesel and well not run blended diesel because it can ruin a lift pump and it costs more. Biodiesel.

    It's a secret
    I re-engineered my 1GR-FE to run on unicorn farts and leprechaun rainbows. And the byproduct from my exhaust are gold-foil chocolate coins and Wild Berry Skittles...

    ...shyte, it's still only Monday.

    Eh, it's nothing they haven't seen before. We might think it's embarrassing, but you should hear what they call the giant gaseous balls in their home system.

    You don't understand the difference between "weather" and "climate." I get it. Science is hard, basic logic and reasoning skills aren't necessarily something everyone has. Trump won that election, ammiright???? We got you, bro.

    Weather is what one calls whatever is going on that does not fit your chosen beliefs. Climate is what one calls whatever is going on that does fit your chosen beliefs. And..., he won the election, he lost the counting.
