Dirty Gas

Ethanol.  It's everywhere, apparently.

I chose this one gas station moderately close to my house specifically because it sold Ethanol-free gas.  The first time I filled up there, I swear I did not see any signs mentioning Ethanol.   Of course, the very next time I go to fill up, there's a sign at the pump: "May contain up to 10% Ethanol".


Well s#!t.  Back to square one.  So here I am, doing internet searches for Ethanol-free stations.

I found two iOS apps, but they both reference the same two stations nearby (probably the same database) and the closest is, of course, the one I've been to.


I wonder if some pumps at that station are ethanol-free while others aren't?  Or perhaps that station is no longer ethanol-free?  I may have to make a few phone calls in the morning.
