A fishy smell?

Ok, moving right along, bio-diesel is the third of four alt.fuel items about which I’m curious. You have to have been paying attention almost right from the start if you’re going to guess what the fourth is.
Basically, bio-diesel is filtered waste cooking oil. As long as there are donuts, you’ll never run out of juice again. For every Chinese restaurant that opens in your neighborhood, that’s another 600 miles per week of environmentally non-hostile driving you can do.
Now, because I was just at Reuters getting the low-down on ethanol, I searched their archives for the latest on bio-diesel and though articles weren’t nearly as plentiful as those on ethanol, one at which I looked amused me not a little for its scope of pure ambition. I mean this is oops-there-goes-another-rubber-tree-plant, high apple pie in the sky hopes kinda stuff. But anyone that ballsy deserves more respect than any humble blog will ever be able to bestow.
I’ve emailed the people behind this monumentally upstartish start-up and if all this is beginning to sound like free plugging, consider yourselves lucky I’m not doing a music blog, because I’d be thumping out Chris Brown news like there were no other musicians on the planet if that were the case. It’s stories like this that restore my faith in the future of… well everything really. It’s just gold medal winning gumption and frankly, it makes my frossets wipple.
