Tilly, I got the same message.
Perhaps they failed to pay their hosting fees?

Will this forum go the same way? Lately there has been about as much traffic here as the Canning stock route in January.

We will just have to do more posting about our greasy interests!

With the price of fuel lately I would have thought there'd be more greasers on the road...
If I didn't have a fuel card and a lovely new Navara I'd be looking at a Merc powered vehicle again.

I am still here . I made biodiesel from acorns 3/5/2011 . I used a solvent extraction method to obtain the vegetable oil . I don't have the numbers in front of me but I might have got 5% oil from the weight of acorns. I never developed it into a commercial product . I made methyl biodiesel , ethyl biodiesel , isopropyl biodiesel , n-propyl biodiesel . By using different alcohols in making biodiesel , slighty different properties occur.

I used the URL http://biodiesel.infopop.cc/ and got the following message:

Either the domain has been overused, or the reseller ran out of resources.

Maybe Bob has had enough of infopop because of the lack if interest. I feel sorry for some of the members on there asking questions. Their query would stay on there for a couple of days with no reply.

I'd say more complicated and expensive engine technology, the lack of an app as well as the rarely ability of using ones brain keeps a lot of youngsters away.

geeeeeezzz do I sound old

!

not saying there are no smart youngsters out there, but from my experience, the ones I have tried to motivate just shrug their shoulders and say 'why whould you bother'

all good just keep paying for your fuel.

Jens I find that generally people have to have what I call " A cold Winter" in their life before they realise that every little gain is worthwhile and the effects of each little gain is compounding towards success / financial freedom.

young people have it too easy these days when they are kids. I dont think anything has changed with financial pressures when you geta little older (mortgage, cars etc), but in the late teens / early 20's no one seems to give a hoot.
