PBS should be destroyed!Food being made into fuel! Genius!There goes our food supply!PBS is government funded and tries to make the viewers feel guilt to send money because without the government they would not survive. PBS is a communist organisation just like our public schools!PBS smokes too much pot!

there are a limited number restaurants that have a limited amount of waste oil...I have a food business in a small town and people are competing for our old oil.....That is like saying, "we can go down to the stream and catch fish and we don't have to pay for food" Good idea! we can all go down to the stream for our food.

Biodiesel is amazing, soon i will save over $4000 a year in fuel costs.

Refining waste oil from restaurants into biodiesel could save people like me over $4000 a year in fuel costs, producing it for a little more than 70 cents/gallon. And you can also pick up extra money from the restaurants than give you the waste oil by competing with the (vacuum truck) companies that already offer this service. Creating Biodiesel is really amateur chemistry, and quite simple.

Obviously you do not not understand biodiesel. Most biodiesel is made from recycled oil. Also, you omit that many farmers are paid NOT to grow certain crops. If more old oil was recycled and farmers were paid to grow crops for biodiesel maybe you too would be paying $1.70 for your gas. Educate yourself on this.

When I watch him I can almost smell the pipe. Any idiot that thinks you can take a finite supply (food crops) and an infinite demand (fuel) and cause anything other than a food economic disaster is dillusional.

try a 50% bio blend with 50% petro diesel. I have also heard that canola oil is pretty good for winter blends, but it might just be a rumor. And dont try to buy something labeled as a "anti-gelling" additive. none of them work for biodiesel that well. Whatever you do, stick a sample of your blend in the freezer overnight to make sure it will work. if any wax forms, dont use it.

the new golf (rabbit) is a 2.0 liter diesel with electric hybrid. it is pretty sweet. I would consider getting one if they release it in the USA. But, i already own a Yaris so i'm not gonna reduce my fuel useage by much :P
