I personally think it SUCKS.

Anything that diverts attention from Biodeisel is a problem for me.

I just had a conversation with a brother-in-law who works for American Plant Food and has a PHD in Soil Fertility. The reason was to find out what he knew about biodiesel. His response surprised me.

He was not as optimistic about the near term progress of biodiesel and the reason was a real shock. The govenment apparently was prepared to spend a ton of money on research etc. The biggest opponents to this alternative fuel were the enviromentalists, the same people who oppose drilling for oil, driving your truck and just about anything else people might want to do, the envornmentalists. I would have thought the environmental groups would be pushing this product because of its enviromentally safe qualities. Not so. Apparently, using land to provide the oil source is against their credo. What is becoming apparent with these people is that there is no middle ground. They will not be happy until we live in caves and ride bicycles although I can't imagine how you could a bicycle they would approve of.

We have to start pushing this with our congressman and making them understand the facts.
