Kansas City Star ROBBED by Pulitzer Committee!!

Incredibly, the Pulitzer Committee somehow overlooked the 120-article series on "hot fuel" penned by the obsessive Steve Everly. How could they fail to recognize the constant, tedious reportage plumbing the shocking, shocking fact that liquids tend to expand when they are warmed?

They must not have an award for pointless, breathless exposes . . .

Even so, they should have given an award for the weekend teaser they used back in October - "The hot fuel debate rages on nationwide . . .". Pulitzer for comedy writing?

Dan -

Actually, hot fuel is a huge issue in legal circles. There are multiple class lawsuits against the nation's largest fuel suppliers and retailers. The largest MDL action is pending in the U.S. District Court - D. Kan.

You would probably be aware of this if you were a lawyer. But alas.
