Awesome, thx.  I will look forward to this, and then we should be able to
do a $ per mile cost calculation and get a sense of how much further we
have to go to reach those who care about that, and nothing else.

There was a newspaper article today about the national price of gas.  The
price per barrel has come down a few dollars, but the price at the pump is
lingering (I don't think it's that surprising that there's a little lag).
Of course, there's all sorts of moral outrage about gouging and so forth.

But another point mentioned was the number of smaller trucker (owning
something like 9 trucks or less) who have been put out of business and
continue to be, when these price spikes occurr.  The larger truckers also
feel it, but do have better mechanisms in place apparently to pass on some
of the costs.

If B100 could ever be reduced enough in price to really be competitive on
that basis, then it would be interesting to see if it would help these
folks who are being so affected by petro-diesel costs.

AT the pump down the street here, #2 is about $1.95, so it sounds like
you're at about an 80 cent premium, if your #2 is around the same.
