Each year, more than 17 million gallons of fuel are spilled during the refueling of power lawn and garden equipment.

That does not even add up.

Sounds like an arbitrary number to me. I never spill more than a few drops and that evaporates off the mower.

It certainly doesn’t, who might be the giant statistical manipulator.

The price of gas being what it is, not one drop escapes my scrutiny during refueling. I use a large fuel filter funnel so I can see what I’m doing.

So, did anyone bother to do the statistics on fueling errors at gas stations, which I’m betting, exceed lawnmower errors by a very large factor.

Folks, I hate to say it, Oh sorry, there’s that hate word again, must be offending someone already, but truth doesn’t seem to phase the environuts, there is one thing that will phase them, but that is for another day. Maybe between now and then they will wake up to reality.
