Glad you agree. I hold a position here as well as over at that venture company as well.
Im going to wear one pair and bring another to work, lol!
Just find it kind of funny the timing of it all.
Id give it more credence if it came out months ago.
I dont know all the info regarding the Andrettis. Sounds like it just didnt work out about 7 years ago. Seems he is more legit this time around.
You mean the one that was submitted by some pinhead about a week ago. Not much credibility.
Yes a R/S.
Mov...Jack-of-all-trades master of none, EXCEPT when the business is dilution and deception. All these products and ideas and no real focus on getting something completed.
I could be wrong, something may come to be but I believe it will just fall into their hands and not be accomplished because of the company trying.
I feel for Pupp,all the work that has been done and it may not get him anywhere with this one. Thanks Pupp.
Just my opinion.
Thanks argo.eom
Profiteer.. I had forgotten about that. Thanks for the reminder.
Anyone want to tell me what they mean,in the press release, when they say "their research and development department is in the process of developing the most user-friendly retrofit flex-fuel device currently on the market".
The "process of developing" is what I am questioning.
TIA
This is disgusting, watching this move and not being in it.eom
Repeat and Three..I agree.eom
Three.. I think they want the oil co. support because unless you build new gas stations the ethanol product will come out of the existing gas pumps. They could probably get rid of the middle grade gas at the station and replace it with ethanol product.
Someone correct me if I am wrong, please.
Drifter
I have been following these posts for some time and have paid attention enough to follow in your angst regarding spzi pps. Not long ago as you were stating facts or raising valuable issues others were attacking/bashing you,I understood what you were saying or agreed with your issues.
I wasn't trying to put you on the defensive with my living on the edge comment.
No, you don't have to answer me. Not a problem.
Did anyone else read more into drifter's post and his "educated" guess?????
Drifter..Are you walking a fine line, living on the edge, cutting it close?
Booger,
I see what you mean with the google search. Found this but it is a little old. Chart looks interesting.

Sorry to the moderator if this is a violation.
Pup or anyone...
The E85 modification being tested in Australia consists of a kit which operates between the car's engine management computer and the fuel injectors to maintain correct fuel-air mixtures.
Mills said that to run on E85, cars also required a one-off additive to the oil to protect engine internals. The oil was then replaced after the first 2000km with normal oil.
The modification kit, installation and additive would cost about $400.
I take it that the kits mentioned above are Xcel's though it is not directly mentioned in the article.
I would agree Pup that the tests could be further along then we think.
Pup ,Argo I thought the same.eom.
Summerfest is better , I agree. Also haven't been there in years. They seem to get some good names to play up there as the years have gone on.
Here is what I got back from Obama after I had written him and mentioned Xcelplus.
Thank you for contacting me regarding your support for the increased use of ethanol as an alternative fuel. I appreciate hearing from you.
With more than two-thirds of the nation’s petroleum demand currently generated by motor fuels usage and gas prices burning holes in consumers' pocketbooks, ethanol has become a focal point in the discussion about the future of renewable fuels in America. The expanded production and use of home-grown, renewable fuels like ethanol and biodiesel is a proven means of reducing our dependence on foreign oil and putting downward pressure on gasoline and other energy prices.
I am pleased to report that two ethanol provisions I have been promoting since early in the first session of the 109th Congress were included in the final version of H.R. 6, the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which has been signed into law by the President. First, H.R. 6 includes the language I introduced early this year as S. 918 and establishes a tax credit for the installation of E-85 pumps at service stations I initially proposed in March. Second, it also contains a new renewable fuels standard (RFS) that was initially drafted by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on which I serve that will nearly double the amount of ethanol used in gasoline over the next seven years.
With the rise of alternative fuel vehicles produced by automakers and improvements in ethanol production technology, one remaining obstacle to the expanded use of ethanol-blended gasoline is the lack of gas stations that pump E-85. While there are more than 170,000 gas stations all over America, less than 700 offer E-85. If we want to take full advantage of the benefits of ethanol-blended gasoline, it is essential that E-85 be more readily available to the owners of flexible fuel vehicles that can already run on either conventional gasoline or 85% ethanol blends. The E-85 tax credit in the energy bill will help service station owners afford the installation of these pumps, thereby making the fuel more accessible to consumers, increasing the demand for ethanol and reducing the cost of gasoline for motorists by as much as 50 cents per gallon.
In addition, the new renewable fuels standard established in H.R. 6 requires refiners to purchase a minimum amount of ethanol for use in gasoline each year. That minimum volume increases by a set amount each year until it reaches a minimum of 7.5 billion gallons in 2012. Together, the RFS and E-85 will not only help ethanol displace more foreign oil, they will also boost farm income by expanding the market for corn and soybeans and promote economic growth in rural areas by attracting investment in community-size ethanol plants across Illinois. The new demand for ethanol will add tens-of-thousands of new jobs throughout our national economy, many of them in Illinois, and is expected to increase the price of corn by as much as 50 cents per bushel.
Thank you again for writing.
Sincerely,
Barack Obama
United States Senator
Pup, did you get a reply from Obama? Also, are you a "TOC" fan or a "Summerfest" fan?
Pup..I appreciate the notification of it being up and running. Now I don't have to keep checking it.
Regarding site...Some pages work or aren't available. Check out the related links page. Anyone know how to speak what looks like Latin? At least it's up( the site).
Repeat .. Found the same site a few weeks ago or so with a xlpi press release.Same situation as you. I brought it up to the pup and this was his answer"Crusty I think that is a free site that either A)Picks up past press releases days later or B)Puts up press releases when requested. It is possible that Brad is submitting the recent press releases to some of these free sites just to put the company in a little more of the spotlight. It also looks like they submit it to different search engines so if you look up Xcelplus in the news that release will pop up as just released"
Thanks nez.eom.
Maybe we could pair up with Verasun to distribute the diesenol?eom.
What then, do you believe, will make the companies put their name on this product? How does xcel get around the warranty issue?
I am not trying to be difficult, just want some thoughts?
That is what I thought someone(you) had mentioned somewhere in the prior posts. Thank you for the clarification.
So at this point we have acquired/obtained patents , applied for trademarks and sold shares for advertising. It would seem to me one of the next steps would be to get the EPA approval (if required, pardon my ignorance)so that any advertising could be substantiated with this qualification.
I wonder what order of priority is being given regarding the products this company has to offer.( just thinking out loud)
News out.eom
Also found this.. http://www.webmajik.com/website_development/fullflex.html
and this.. http://www.idahoflexfuel.com/pages/findfuel.html.
Hopefully the dust will settle soon so to speak and things will become clear.
Talk to you later.
Pup..Have you already been to the Thefuelman.com site, or idahoethanol.net and e85forum.com. I 've also seen it at two different real estate links but it is the flextune name they have on it. I have found this info from googling.I am sorry if you have already seen or if someone has posted it.
Me too(NW of city). I agree. I think I am limited to three messages. Talk to you tomorrow
Pup..Looks to me like we are trying to knock on the same door. Are you located in the Northern part of the state or the South?
Pup.. Just sent an email to my state senator regarding xcel, hoping for a response of some sort.
Pup...Where did you find it? I'll try to look around and find some more.
Just someones outlook on Biomass ethanol
http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/analysispaper/biomass.html.
Thank you, XLPI-IR.
Anyone.. How widely accepted will this product(diesenol) become? We may have the rights but that is obviously no guarantee. Any thoughts , anyone?
News out. That was the reason for the matching trades, at least in this case.
X.. Have any idea what those matching trades mean? I have heard the reason before but I can't recall this morning.TIA
