[GreenKeys] Lubrication question.

[Scott Johnson]

There is really no significance to the term "mineral oil", One might as well
say "hydrocarbon oil".  It come from the black stuff in the ground, it is
traditionally a straight alkane (non-branched) hydrocarbon fraction.
Yes, you slather junior with the leftovers from gasoline production. 
I guess it does distinguish it from vegetable and animal derived oils.
