I told some of my friends that I was starting to make my own BD and some of them were really interested. Some asked why and some teased me. I think its funny, really. They call me the mad scientist, "Meth", or anything that has to do with drug dealing. The big one is my new house has already been named 3M for Matts Meth Mafacturing. What ever. I just think its funny some people make fun of things they have no clue about. When I get all moved in, in July I hope, I will start up again. But now I have to find a new source of WVO. Oh well.

I had some empty drums in my truck for a while and the guys at works started calling me "Chemical Ali". [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
actually, whenever I say to someone that if fuel prices got to bad I could fill up at McDonalds, they kinda go "huh?" and I explain that a diesel can run on grease and they are usually "w0w!".
Everyone already made fun of me for always yapping about diesels long before I ever spoke of making my own fuel. Now I get it even more.
Everyone always asks me if Im going to "put diesel in it." As if that is all it takes to have a diesel...... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
They laugh at me pretty good, until they have to tow something with me (Max), or go long distances (TDI)...Then I laugh. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]
Yeah, and to top that off, lets see who's laughing when we are filling up for ummm FREE on WVO or for cents on the gallon for the BIO guys. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]
