Larry, you seem to be hung up on the fact that they don't make it
themselves. I don't see what the issue is, private labeling is extremely
common marketing. So they by by the barrel and sell by the quart, big
deal. I have a much bigger problem with the MLM aspect of it. It's the
cultism of the MLM's that gives me the creeps.

After reading this thread, I kept asking myself, what is 'synthetic' oil
anyway. So I went to one of my favorite sites, answers.com.

I thought Amsoil was a synthetic, not a refined petroleum product.
Synthetics can be manufactured in any lab environment. Large cracking
plants are not required.

What? You think they make it one quart at a time?

I doubt it....What's in Superior at the home office is a bottling plant
out
behind Dolly Madison, or so the Dolly Madison people tell me. I'm just
trying to figure out what they're bottling that's so expensive....Mobile
1?
