Default Most People Will Never Know About Biodiesel

I'm in San Antonio right now... turns out they're having a biodiesel
conference. He's an equipment supplier that sells stuff to make it on
a commercial level. Told me that they know it's only a fad, but hey...
they're going to make as much as they can while it is. He figures
it'll all be over in about 5 years.


Biodeisel has been around since the deisel engine was invented. In fact
deisel engines were originally run on vegeable oil in WWII by the Nazis who
invented it. It wasn't until later that is was run on the deisel fuel we use
now. I would say that doesn't really qualify as a fad. People have been
making it themselves ever since. Maybe the current surge of people buying
their stuff will be over in 5 years but people will always want a new way to
get fuel.
