Costco today: KC, MO

35 pounds of soybean oil with tax = $13.53
.13 gal/lb (or 7.69 lb/gal) = 4.55 gal @ $2.97/gallon

It's still cheaper for me to buy at the pump, but a
1,000 liter tote is a hell of alot cheaper than a 35
lb jug. Will call the distributors next week and split
a tote with my 300D benz buddy.

Also snagged 55 gallons of WVO from a mosque
today...they have fish fries and wanted to get rid of
it - smells fresh :-)

Too much knowledge of math. 

I should add that my son (now happily married) was a math geek in high 
school -- Thomas Jefferson High School of Science and Technology, went on to 
get a Master's out of Virginia Tech (TJ was a feeder school for Tech) and is 
married to a "make you drool" redhead who majored in math at VaTech. 

Those who end up making the big bucks didn't date much in high school -- 
they were way too smart to have their heads turned by girls who'd end up 
working at Wendys for a career.

I didn't date much in high school either, but that was because I was a band

[MBZ] Weight of soy oil

2005-09-02 Thread Wilton Strickland
Food grade soy began to make sense today, especially as emer. backup.  Dino
@ ~ $3.40; long lines at pump; some stations with no fuel; production and
pipeline from TX & LA down.
35 lb jug of soy @ $14.17 incl. sales tax at Sam's.
1 gal soy weighs, I think, ~ 7.4 lbs (still trying to confirm)
35 lbs @ $14.17 = ~ 4.6 gal @ ~ $3.08/gal
If I NEED it, I'll pour it from jug into tank.

Fresh or salt? As you may know, fresh water floats on salt water. Mineral 
content of your particular location also varies the weight. I can see a Google

I took four of my "consumers" to the Des Moines zoo yesterday. We were 
talking about gas prices. One of them asked my why I was driving my Benz to 
work (1 mile commute from home) instead of buying a bicycle. I informed him 
that I had TWO Trek bicycles, one costing $1800 and one costing $1000. He 
asked me why I didn't ride THOSE to work to save fuel, and I informed him 
that if I didn't have to haul his and his friends asses (very 
unprofessional, I know) around all day to medical and therapst appointments 
I COULD bicycle to work. The company Suburban got REALLY quiet for about 15

Just pick up the yellow pages of the biggest nearby

there will be a section of edible/foodgrade VO

It's heavy, so you need to figure the transportation

Wilton,

Just a guess, but about the same as diesel fuel..  Probably  
between 7 & 8 pounds per gallon..  Water is about 7lbs..


Also wondered why it mattered?

It matters 'cause I just bought it by the 35 lb. jug.  Just wondering how my
cost compares to today's $3+/gal for diesel fuel.  I guessed ~ 7 lbs./gal.

Diesel fuel floats so its lighter than water which is 8lbs/gal. "A pint is a 
pound the world around" as my grandmother says.

If it floats on water it must weigh less than water, or about 3 duckweighs.

The rule of thumb in Iowa is that soy oil weight about half a duckweigh.
