    We need web-signatures to get this hot-fuel petition to a WhiteHouse committee. Here is the URL https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/%21/petition/prohibit-any-chemical-being-added-gasoline-or-diesil-fuel-which-will-cause-rise-tempeture-fuel/W6rndM65?utm_source=wh.gov&utm_medium=shorturl&utm_campaign=shorturl:https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/%21/petition/prohibit-any-chemical-being-added-gasoline-or-diesil-fuel-which-will-cause-rise-tempeture-fuel/W6rndM65?utm_source=wh.gov&utm_medium=shorturl&utm_campaign=shorturl
    **cut and paste will work if this doesn't showup.

    Please forward this--so far not many people seem to care. I like the idea of more miles per gallon.

    As fuel heats up it expands and has less BTU's per gallon. You're getting ripped at the pump in the summer especially in the deep south. Canadians already pay based on fuel temp, they aren't getting ripped. This is important IMO, I'll be signing the petition.

    Ok. Is this legit?

    Go read the petition from the link posted above. I would think it would be spell checked at least?

    "Diesil"? "Tempeture"?

    Come on, at least make it sound like a dumb trucker didn't write it, lol!

    Sorry for the spelling errors, hope you can see past that to actually look at the petition. :biggrin_25515:

    HA! I thought the same thing, to be taken seriously put a little more time and effort into it.

    Wondering why you are so easily drawn off track? The issue is signing a petition to get rid of hot fuel not my spelling. Cutting off your nose to spite your face again?

    What chemicals are you suggesting are being put into our fuel to elevate its temperature? I could care less about your spelling, BTW, but I would like the facts, please.

    Because if you want to be taken seriously, by anyone that matters, your petition needs to look professional. That means correct spelling, grammar and information.

    I couldn't agree more on proper grammar. Next time write your petition in Word and cut and paste.

    I also believe that you need to do proper research and provide facts. We have no idea what you are talking about and neither will anyone that may see this document.

    With all due respect, what you say could be true or based on what was heard on the CB radio. I respect what you are trying to do but nobody in congress will take you seriously unless you cite sources that support your infomation and use proper grammar.

    If you are serious do some research, provide some facts and make this happen.

    I've been so busy I haven't even looked at or signed the petition yet. I'll check it out later tonight when I shut down. Agree with others no-one will take it serious in capitol hill if you don't have correct spelling/grammer. I'm on board with the hot fuel issue being important.
