   Well , Bruce that's the reality of what Gov't Agencies do that answer to 
no one .That
   produce such follies like the addition of oxygen bearing compounds into 
finished
   gasoline  in the misguided attempt to " clean" the air by burning more 
hydrocarbons.
    We understand what happen to engine fueling when additional oxygen is 
introduced
    into the Exhaust System, EPA bureaucrats  didn't. Then to top it off , 
these additives
    make people sick and foul public drinking water with carcinogenic.  Oh 
, don't forget,
   These folks are protecting the ENVIORNMENT. These activities do require 
recalibrations
  and lots of headaches for AutoMakers  and Service personnel. It Costs the 
public big $$
   to implement this faulty Science , then to make it go away by 2003.
    Yes , the big picture of why tuning features may become disabled to 
meet these "Mandates".
   All of this impacts what we do in a major way  Bruce. BTW , watch the 
Fox guarding the Hen
   House.
