Opps!---Yes I have your 2PM's--Why is it that my facility for language frolics---doesn't include utilization of our forums simplest features? Thank you so very much!
Biodiesel is heavily promoted in the US---but very little is actually made. It is most often used for transport trucks---as the fuel stations are mainly on the interstates---and their are not many stations. It's mainly a "buzzword concept"--- something we like to talk about but really -really aren't that interested in--- or else N America would produce more. Since N America is the centre of the Universe of Fried Food---have you ever noticed how rotund our tourists are when they visit your country? And why do they dress so badly? Why are they wearing oversized childwear? There are some questions that even, may. baffle Ciro, Manchild and DaveKillens. Have I offended anyone yet? Non? I must try harder.
N Americans---usually---wear a proper suit twice in their lives---at their "1st" marriage and at their funeral--well, no thats really only once isn't it---one does not notice what they are wearing on their "end-day"--do they? Now---I own 22 suits---and wear them. Everyone assumes I work for the CIA, Mossad or may have been given back-dated Enron shares--if they had ever interviewed me for---Oh---slush-fund-bagman.
Back to Bio-fuel. Restaurants dispose of the spent grease--it is harvested by eco-hunter-gatherers--reprocessed and used to fuel vehicles
Fried Food is of course cooked in oil---usually vegetable oil---after repeated use--it becomes rancid with food remains, moisture and acid.Then of course---even we won't eat anything thats been cooked in it. Hard to believe--but true.
The US seems to believe that the Future of Bio-fuel is ethanol distilled from corn--we import so much wine from Ciro's S America that---perhaps--we have so much excess corn---that it will be processed into ethanol. Very inefficent carbohydrate stock for making ehtanol---Brazil---where people actually enjoy everyday life---almost as much as Columbians do---use sugarcane stock to more efficently produce more ethanol than the same volume of corn ever will---oh.
I forgot to mention that we used to use corn to distill whisky---you know--Moonshine---and let me tell you, the moon does shine after drinking a jam jar of it---back to auto racing---the souped up, tuned up sedans used by Moonshine Runners were the forebearers of NASCAR---or was it NASA? I'm not sure which.
In conclusion ---let me say this was written for 2 reasons:
1) [For the North Americans] If you can't laugh at yourself occassionally---who can you laught at?
2) I had to read 14 pages about ( The Horror...The Horror---as Joseph Conrad wrote) MS retirement and the "MS Tributes" (which was worse than paying 33% of every dollar I make as taxes--- or, rather Tribune)
Do not make the mistake of thinking I don't like MS---I am ambivalent about him---just as I would never tell a woman that she has------ mistakenly,tucked her dress into her personal linen upon exiting the ladies restroom. I would never say that MS is not a successful F1 draysman,,,I mean driver. I would let him buy me a beer anytime, anywhere---but then---I'd let just about anyone buy me a beer, then pretend to listen to their stories, as I drank "their" beer, just as fast as I can. Making a quick exit to "pit-stop"---far away---at 60K---not wanting to incur an FIA penalty--for being ungracious.

So read it as humour (this disclaimer: Ciro taught me to use it---often included at the end of his posts) I have really not meant to offend anyone.
