He earned a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, now Virginia Tech, and received a master's degree in industrial management as a Sloan Fellow at MIT. DeWitt downsized his operations after an economic recession hit the United States in 1975. He closed the business in 2018.

Proposed by John Heywood and colleagues at MIT in 2005, the basic premise of E85 boosting is that ethanol (or other lower alcohols) suppresses knock due to the large evaporative cooling effect it has on the air-fuel mixture when injected directly into the cylinder, supplemented by ethanol’s inherent high octane number.

This was reinforced during a subsequent presentation by Robert Czarnowski, of Borg Warner, on that company’s new control strategy for a dual loop EGR system to meet projected future emissions standards. We see dramatic downsizing and boosting [as] something that’s going to for gasoline engines especially. John Kirwan.

A recent white paper by Leslie Bromberg of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center and Wai K. Researchers at the US EPA investigating this approach concluded that the M85 and E85 engines could provide efficiencies comparable or higher than the diesel, in dedicated fuel, high compression ratio turbo charged/downsized engines.
Charged EVs

Steven Kaye: ONE’s anode-free cell advantages include high energy density (thin lithium metal anode), low cost (no anode present during cell assembly, low-cost liquid electrolyte), and abundant raw materials (mostly manganese, zero cobalt). What led you to choose this chemistry instead of others? Can you tell us what led you to ONE?

This is from "Commercializing Plug-In Hybrids" (pdf), the current CalCars 24-slide presentation about PHEVs available along with other documents at CalCars Downloads. Agrees on environmental and economic benefits, though some presentations backtrack on that; says batteries need further development before commitment to mass-production.
