If you can get onto a supply of cooking oil(used) from fish and chip shops,it makes excelent bio diesel.the oil has to be the type that does not solidify when it goes cold.The process of making it is very simple,and it works out at about 12 cents (Australia) per litre.the only thing is, i have heard a rumour that the fuel companies are going to make methanol unavailable to the public unless you are involved in speedway or racing high performance vehicles.I can still get around this as i do have contacts in that area.I actually discovered that the price i was paying for a 20 litre drum of it(45 dollars) was way too high and i can get it much cheaper than that through the speedway guys.The only other ingredient you use is caustic soda.There is no lack of power and so far havent heard of any problems.As long as you stick to the right quantitys and dont make a mistake--bobs your uncle.I could give you the recipe but would take too long.If you need the info contact me through yahoo and we can make arrangements from there.regards,ron,australia.

Because the government are satisfied with the present tax levy on fuel of 70% to supplement their war chest. This outlook applies also to the methods in which electricity is generated at present and the tax income they derive from it.
With their present monetary policy of a high profit low wage economy, why should they change to cleaner, cheaper and more environmentally friendly methods of energy supply?
If you consider voting for one of the other two London parties in the future, then think again for their policy is exactly the same. Don,t believe me, then check on the past record of the Tories. (and the former Liberal Party before you were born.)

There is a firm in Miami that will be producing Bio Diesel from Human fat . Apparently the Liposuction clinics in Florida have 10 tons a week of the stuff to sell . .A truly renewable resource

Because then the oil companies wouldn't make as much profit! What do you think, they're in it for the philanthropy?
