Like any stopgap/feelgood gov't driven program, there is no basic rule
on ethanol labeling: only 3 or 4 states currently mandate ~10% ethanol,
(and a few metro areas), while several states don't even require labeling
of gasoline pumps that do contain that 10%.

Hit GOOG, and noodle around in your state; many states/newsmedia have
forums and lists of stations that sell non-ethanol gasoline, eg marinas, some
off brand stations, etc. But, remember those "lists" are pretty anecdotal.

In the meantime, it is what it is, and that 10% should not be a detriment other
than the possiblity of slightly reduced mpg per gallon.
