Bio Diesel is one thing but is anything happening with Brian Schweitzer's coal gassification proposal? I saw him interviewed when he said that we have a 400 year supply of coal as an alternative fuel to replace our use of oil. In WWII, Germany ran their war machine with a significent % of diesel from coal gasification.

Haven't heard much lately, but I know Gov. Schweitzer is very adimate about his coal-for-energy proposal.



I'm looking forward to someday soon (hopefully) filling up with Bio. Oo.

That was a most informative interview. The oil companies probably have him marked for death.

BTW... I was in Tyler, Texas last week... saw several big billboards advertising BioWilly, complete with Willy Nelson's smiling face! So, part of the country is getting Bio Diesel, a little surprising it's in an oil rich state! I did get B05 from a bakery/fuel station on I90 near Belgrade, MT when I was out there a couple years ago.

Yep. So far he has been one hell of a Gov. IMO. He's pretty bold. A heck of a transition from our previous administration.

It's been here for a short while, but only in a few places. I fueled up there last year. Hopefully it will be widely available soon.
