Hey --- makes great sense to me! And it now even makes better sense when thinking back to the summer months when fuel prices were over the top, Oil Industry Executives (going to keep comments neutral-not mentioning names like Exxon) were sitting with their 'butts' pinched tight and lying to Congress and details relative to age of U.S refineries, and what?---something like 20 years since a new refinery has been built in the U.S?
So I agree -- It's been about 2 years, but even worse than that --- how much ADVANCE knowledge did the Oil Industry have as to the change to ULSD??? As I said earlier ---- sad proof and acceptance that it's all corruption and greed....Oh well!
