Default RE: Is POWERMASTER cheating?

Oh, I'm steamed after reading this.
I'm not a complainer but I am a fan of PM fuels as you can see by the picture here. These are my "active" gallons on rotation. Yes, every single one is a different type. Yes, I fly many engines. I was actually looking for a specific fuel that my LHS no longer carries and came across this post as I am do some custom mixes with their fuel to get what I need. I have a spreadsheet to calculate the exact ml to get the exact %s I need but if my cans are short fuel, I'm off my mark and this is problematic and worrysome.

I immediately went to the PM website to check if there was a fuel recall or some news about can shortage. I could not find anything. Should'nt PM post the batch numbers so consumers can check their stock or is this so widespread... Does everyone need to measure their gallons or lack thereof.
Where does this start and end. Say an average shortage is 10ozs of fuel and your average gallon price is $15, that is a loss of 1.17 a gallon. How many gallons were sold short, that could add up. As an abundant PM fuel consumer, I am concerned... I wish to hear from PM. Thanks.
