You should have read more closely. I said that I was totally disinterested in changing anybodys viewpoint on the matter. You're entitled to your opinion, and to do what you want.
I will point this out though. If you flip a quart of Valvoline over, on the back it says "Lexington, KY". We have a test lab where we run engines for weeks, even months at a time and then tear them apart and measure for wear. That's where I work, that's where we develop/test our products, as well as test other peoples products. So go ahead and keep drinking your kool-aid. I don't care.
As a side note, most oils advertized as synthetics today are not really synthetic (including Valvoline), they are group III hydrocracked oils (highly refined rather than true synthetics). Mobil 1 is really the only widely and easily available oil that is still a true group IV polyalphaolefin base synthetic.
