Mobil 1 controversy on wikipedia.org

Who has the coglioni to put the "controversy" part back in?
Well I am using firefox, but a snake must have removed the information. Mobil most likely has people who patrol this site, can't imagine they dont. They don't want the Group III word to spread. But 99% of consumers either don't know the difference between G3 and PAO or they just dont give a flip. IMHO when Exxon merged with them, M1 went down hill. I suppose M1 gets the bad rap now, but in reality its most likely Exxon that ruined the M1 name. Maybe if M1 suffers enough they will bring back full PAO synthetics. But odds are that won't happen in a million years.
Thanks moribundman for posting that info.
If they dont want it to spread to their consumers, then why the #@$%! dont they just step up to the plate and say exactly whats in their oil formulation instead of hiding behind their product? Screw them,I'll use a product that if I have uestions about,I can get reliable answers from.

Just who is this Eblem?
65.88.100.253 shows to be an IP address from Germantown, MD via DirecPC.com
65.88.98.232 same as above
The group III reference is still there as of 4:32 PM EST, Feb 10, 2007.
"Mobil 1 was introduced in 1974. In 2002 Mobil 1 introduced "supersyn" anti-wear technology, followed by Mobil 1 Extended Performance in 2005 which increased the use of this technology further by using Group III base oil."

He's a tool.
It's gone now. Makes me want to hit every single auto site I can find and "spread the word".
This thread is about a edit/posting on Wikipedia under the Mobil 1 listing. It was there as the screen shots and cut and paste reflect in this string here. Now it is gone. That is what folks are speaking of.

Nothing that gets on the web ever gets lost. Once it's up, it's up for good. Sure, content can be removed from a site, but that content is still on the web and it can be found: Cached for good on the Wonderfully Wileful Web
anyone want to bet that XOM has spent more on attorneys, marketing missing links, engineering hype and Web experts than if they would have kept the real PAO base stock
no XOM or SynTec fake oils in this oil stash or oil budget
