Hi,
We all have experienced the type of momentum now gathering around biofuels in other areas. At some point critical mass is reached and what was a fringe activity becomes mainstream.
So here's a question for you: If we (this forum) make the use of biofuels simple and obvious to all, will too many do it and make waste oil scarce? Are we we promoting the use of wvo/svo/biodiesel at our own expense? In other words should self interest prevail over the common good?
I confess to having mixed feelings about this especially with blending. I keep showing friends and several have taken the plunge, and they in turn are showing other friends. Blending is so simple any idiot can do it and a lot more will jump in, (possibly stuffing engines/IP's as well) leading to govt regulation . I don't fancy paying fuel excise/ tax on veg oil and will probably go underground if it happens , and it will happen.
Cheers, Michael
