Look what it takes to create 1 gallon of E85.

Where did you read that? Everything that I've seen is to the contrary.
It takes more energy to produce E85 than what using E85 saves.

And beyond that, it has less potential energy per gallon, hence why you need larger injectors to dump more fuel. If you do calculations based on potential energy and not on volume, the carbon output difference is at most 3 significant figures.

If anything, running E85 should make you want to keep your HFC since its worse for the environment than regular gasoline.

Where did you read that? Everything that I've seen is to the contrary.

E85 is clean. A typical FFV driver can prevent 4 tons of lifecycle carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and other harmful pollutants from entering our air every year by fueling with E85 instead of gasoline. Using E85 can reduce tailpipe emissions such as ozone-forming pollutants by about 20%. E85 will also reduce evaporative emissions of air toxics and ozone formers.

Guys, I think what he was getting at was that there is less emissions from the actual car itself, hence why he got a test-pipe. Not the overall process of making E-85>burning it in your car.

Either which way it goes; hating America, loving America, it really won't matter who influences the students and how they form their own opinions. There is much more influence in the media; television, newspaper, radio, and of course, the internet. Most people, I believe, would rather form "their own opinions" based on the research that they do outside of school, biased research or not.
Whether or not the faculty of the K-12 schools will be teaching to literally hate America, or whether they'll be teaching the students how to think for themselves (when in reality they won't be, no one really does, they just form their 'own' opinions upon those that have formed their 'own' opinions) isn't going to matter all of that much.
I don't know if anyone's noticed or not, but the last big change that this country has had unto itself where we came together as a nation for at least a brief moment in time in just plain awe and fright was a little over eight years ago, and before that it was, what, the Revolutionary War?

I'd rather learn from the teachers the basics of education, and then learn more about other people rather than the country. Really, the country doesn't matter, but it is the people that live here, the people that die here, that matter. Screw the country, love your neighbor, because once you love your neighbor, you'll love the country. Gotta start small to get somewhere big.

We don 't need teachers planting any "seed" of any type into children's young minds, other than that an education is a great thing to have and that you can reach your dreams if you work for them. Research shows that your life long core beliefs are set in motion at early age, not in high school or college. Take a look at marketing as an example. Major car companies, etc. put out children's toys with their trade marks and designs. Why? Because when you come of age and can afford to buy something of your own, subconsciously, you'll be pulled in the direction of what you remember as a good thing from your childhood. Think when "young Tommy" get's his little John Deer tractor to play with and have fun with today in the sandbox at the age of 5, that when he needs a lawn mower or tractor later in life he won't at least consider, if not purchase a John Deer for himself? I'm not making this stuff up, it really works. Does it work on everybody, no, but it does work.

School should be about education, not agendas. And as far as education goes, we're getting left way behind the rest of the world.

Whats it matter? Whether its pollution from the refining plant or the tailpipe its still going into the same atmosphere.
