There was nothing more to hear. I layeth the internet smackdown on some SnakeOil, I mean AmsOil guerrilla fighter. He brought up the accusation but never substantiated it. It stemmed from the reclassification of some synthetic stock back to non-synthetic stock. It was a highly technical argument that only the very chemistry-savvy would really appreciate. Savvy=Master's at a minimum to my way of thinking. Basically, nobody's formula's changed, just the way they were classified. And I don't even think that Mobil 1 was using the base stock in question for their full synth blend.
