Hello,
I was perusing the Energy Commission report (URL below) and it cites
that a drawback of ethanol is that it cannot be transported by pipeline.
That seems odd to me, after all it is a liquid just like petrol, no?
What part of our liquid fuel pipeline infrastructure would need to be
changed
Good Morning,
As this is morning in this part of the world . I have read many comments,
either as a side remark or whole topic of conversation, it had been amazing to
me that many associate labour in countries like Indonesia, China and other
third world countries to be slave sweatshops.
I would like to know of a way to make motor oil out of canola oil.
Let's not talk about the unmentionables. ;-)

It is no doubt that Pol Pot was supported by the Chinese,
