[net.auto] Mobil 1, graphite based, 10W30, straight 30 weight, synthetic

How about if we form net.auto.oil? Wouldn't that get rid of SO MUCH of
this BS about oil, its uses, how to change it, filter it, reuse it, and
drink it as an intoxicant; what the differences are between synthetic,
real, multi-viscosity, single viscosity, graphite, vegtable, mink, and
boot oil is; what cars can, can't, should, shouldn't, void their
warranty using certain oils; and all the user recommendations about
their experiences with how their 1894 Cyclops runs on original oil, and
only a couple zillion miles on it?

And by the way, I NOW KNOW THAT MOBIL 1 DOESN'T CONTAIN GRAPHITE!!!!
I didn't need a daily reminder.
