A publishing incident occurred recently that's a good example of how bad information about ethanol gets passed along and how it can propagate more insidious bad information.
Henny Hemmes, The Auto Channel's Senior European Editor, tipped me off to
a story that appeared a couple of days ago on the website for Auto Express
magazine. Auto Express is a very well-known British publication that is about
the same age as The Auto Channel. The story is titled "New E10 Petrol Plans:
800,000 Cars Would Be Incompatible." For those who don't know, petrol is the
British word for gasoline. (And if you don't know, Henny Hemmes is one of the
most successful Dutch race car drivers from the seventies to the present. She
was the first female driver to win a Dutch FIA Championship and has been a
test driver and automotive writer for more than 30 years.)
