The Alton Village store, which used to sell ethanol-free gas, is now selling gas with 10% ethanol. They were very handy for filling up the boat and I know lots of us with slips in Alton Bay went there regularly. Apparently then can no longer sell the ethanol-free stuff due to government regulations. Seems like a perfect example of the late, great Ronald Reagan's nine scariest words in the English language: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."
