    Default Along the lines of the prices of gas....

    On the other side, Eugene is going to to be opening the first Bio-diesel station in the city. I think (not sure) Portland may have one already... Most of the city and some of the public works vehicles have switched to bio-diesel.... Any one doing bio-diesel??? Have any of your communities started to change over to bio-diesel? Just curious.

    Our small town has an ethanol pump...not sure about the bio-diesel yet. Gripey has a diesel truck and I've been after him to buy a conversion kit so we could burn used cooking oil....we have a thai place in town that we could get it free from. So far, no luck.

    I read in the paper about 3 weeks ago of a company here that will turn your vechile in to a bio diesel one. I never heard of it until then. But I found the article very interesting. I read in the paper alot about the ethonal pumps. One town about 45 minutes from us has some of them.
    Have you seen them and if so what are the prices like for the ethonal?

    Is bio diesel comparable in price to gasoline or is it less?
