[AT] Ethanol

[charlie hill]

here you go Ralph.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_hydrate

and this one is ethanol.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol

If I remember correctly organic compounds with odd number of carbon atoms 
are poisonous and ones with even numbers are not.  I might be wrong.  It's 
been a long time.

Charlie, in the few minutes it took me to walk to the sheds I forgot to
check the gas line anti-freeze/methyl hydrate container. Maybe I was
distracted by the article I had just read in the Western Producer  that
states we are going to see 5% ethanol become compulsory in our gas starting
December 15. I guess we have been a little behind you in the ethanol
content.
