On that DailyKos diary written last week, one of the ladies made an intriguing comment, since we are trying to "lighten our pollution footprint", I'll post it here, hope the link works.
Recently my husband saw a segment on CSPAN touting a gas additive. CA-40, which is described thusly:
I am now getting 270 miles per tank (in my '98 Cutlass) instead of about 200. And though it may be my imagination, the exhaust fumes seem much less stinky.Calcium sulfonate is the second best metallic lubricant on the planet, and is used in the best greases. It's also one of the major components of CA-40. The problem has been that no one has ever been able to keep calcium suspended in fuel. Until now.
CA-40 keeps calcium in suspension through our patented blending process. When CA-40 is added to gasoline or diesel, the calcium bonds to hydrocarbons within the fuel, causing it to burn more efficiently. What this means to consumers is increased fuel efficiency, increased lubricity, and a decrease in harmful emissions.

Here's an interview with manufacturer:
