Well, I should add that this WAS the case. Per the new energy bill, a certain percentage of ethanol is mandated into the gasoline pool period. I don't know how this breaks down though (i.e., if it will mostly be in the non-attainment areas).

And Minnesota. I think they are trying to go to 20%. Perhaps the Minnesotans will meet the mandate for the rest of the country, and we won't be forced to buy the stuff. :) They will be paying $5/gal for ethanol and getting worse gas mileage, while I continue to avoid the stuff like the plague.
