MTBE is still in gas out here (they just renewed the warning labels on the pumps stating it will probably be gone from our state by Nov 2010)

mtbe has been gone for several years now, but i read something that
suggested we weren't told the whole story; it does break down in the
soil, it isn't as potent a carcinogen and it can be tasted at less
than 1% of the hazardous levels, and there are other worse chemicals
in the groundwater which are tasteless.
