Jerry,
Why don't you just start the syntec debate. Here's a guess that should get somebody to say something: Syntec is just mineral
oil made from a base stock which contains a slightly more isolated group of hydrocarbons, instead of a true
synthetic which is creating specific hydrocarbons from smaller molecules. So syntec isn't
synthetic at all, just a slightly better refined base stock mineral
oil. There's my best guess, now here's the ball....
