Of course it wont be transferred the way you suggest. Why would Robert do that when he has done all the work and funded it to make it what it is, to follow his ideals. He will transfer it to someone with similar ideals and so he should, or he may sell it to recover some of his costs, to someone with a more commercial purpose in mind.

I genuinely believe that 2 sites would be the best thing for all concerned. Those members and admins that want to convert everyone to their way of thinking in promoting veg to the worl and going on TV etc can do so here and those that are interested more in using Veg fuels rather than telling the world about them, can discuss the issues that are important to them without being chastised or made to feel their position is wrong by those whom have differing interests.
By having a place dedicated to each school of thought, both camps could be more productive in their respective interests without having those with differing views derailing their efforts.
That has to be a genuinely good thing for everyone. |
OK David - go for it - this forum won't change, it will either continue as it is (promoting veg oil use) or it will die.
If you want a forum that doesn't promote veg oil use then you will have to start one yourself and you had better make it a closed forum and keep out people like me who are prepared to share what we have with those who don't know about it already. Otherwise it will just become another promotion outlet for veg oil use.
Of course it won't help your cause much because we will still be here on this forum sharing the information and in particular sharing the most effective veg oil use promotion, the Fitian conversion.
Every vehicle that Fitain converts brings in another person to the veg oil use community and most of us are happy for the community to expand in this way.
