A friend got this letter from our friends at CARB.
Out of curiosity I looked at the survey, but first off.
* Pardon the crude cut and paste.
Would you respond to the survey?
What would you say?
Would you call that number listed and question them?
Do you think they are trying to make it so we can get better alcohol free fuel in California? BTW there an app for that.... But it says the closest gas station that sells alcohol free fuel is in Arizona
Could this be the predecessor of killing the pre smog exemption?
"Models that inform air quality programs."
WTF are they up to?
Walking the line about political speech here but waiting for them to come for my incandescent light bulbs which are nice when it's cold out and did a little dehumidifying on the boat... Oh but that's another thread
