But true, if not the whole story.

It's still a shill for a commercial enterprise.

As long as a government is protecting the oil industry? I don't think
so. Here in the Netherlands, for diesel fuel used for propulsion of a
boat, or any private vehicle, you have to pay tax, about 30 %.

How is that in the US?

No, I mean his postings are a shill to get you to his website where he
attempts to sell you "the secret info on biodiesel".

It varies from state to state but averages about 20 cents per gallon,
and the federal tax is 18.4 cents per gallon.

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.

Only if they get rid of diesel engines.

Biodiesel seems to work without government subsidies given to ethanol,
and has been around for nearly as long.

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.
