Solar vs. Turtles

Saw this coming.

Edit: 2314- And in similar news....

If it were so great, it wouldn't need a $1 per gallon subsidy. Biofuel seems to me similar to organic food. Make a better product at a competitive price and I'm all-in. Make a satisfactory product and charge me twice as much and, well...no.

Hmmmm.

There WAS a guy around here who owned a Culver's franchise and was using his used cooking-oil as a bio blend for his VW Diesel car.

One can obtain a biodiesel conversion kit for VWs.

But it's not a shade-tree job to mix lots of that stuff. OTOH, there's no Doylet tax if you make it at home.

Yeah...easy to do small batches. Big batches are something else. But I understand it's not a big deal if you have the right equipment.
