While gasahol is probably found most often in the so-called
"premium unleaded", I have definately seen it in leaded "regular".
Luckly I saw the sticker in time. Those of you whose cars can't
use gasahol, watch out, its everywhere!

Hopefully Bosch will develop injectors, etc. that can stand
gasahol, as ethanol is a renewable resource.  Of course we
will also need to generate ethanol more efficiently. I've
read where modern farming techniques are only about 10%
efficient, btu-in verses btu-out wise. (This figure could
be wrong, please hold flames for a couple of days while I
dig up the source)
