    Oh naw, definitely have gravity, or the water wouldn't stay in the creek running past TurboDiesel's house and be able to flow over the edge of the flat earth.... Duh! :handshake: :rofl: :lol:

    "appears to carry "
    In other words it's still in the process of being peer reviewed and appears to possibly be flawed.

    The "study" will be placed on a pedestal until and unless its faults are found and maybe even reported on.
    I'm not holding my breath until the study and its results are confirmed and re-confirmed.
    Considering all the studies that found the opposite.

    Most, if not all, studies can be skewed based on what is being studied, how it is studied, the data inputs, how they are read/perceived/ interpreted/reported and what the study (or person/institution) wants the end user to "get" from the study. Meaning (in my opinion), often you can make a study say what you want.

    I make this comment as a neutral point....I'm not saying I agree one way or another with the linked ethanol article or any previous reporting/studies/article.

    After all, the gub'ment has told us it's good, right?

    Everyone’s got their cherry picked studies that fit the prearranged narrative in their own head, their own “trusted” news sources to back up that predetermined narrative, and their own group of pals that agree with them that keep reinforcing their already set-in-stone beliefs through confirmation bias. No wonder we can’t agree on an any objective view of reality. We probably can’t even agree anymore that reality is objective in the first place :wacky:

    The "just a ride part" sounds good. But then he starts talking about not buying guns and ammo and such blasphemy.....

    Well yeah, the guy was in show business so to be "in the club" there are a few ideological prerequisites to conform to in order to land a job. They can't just let anyone in to the entertainment industry you know, having too much diversity of thought, that would be too inclusive...
