Good on you and Darren, Paddy, that should be really useful. I know Darren's been wanting to set this up for a while, glad it's up and running now. Which myths about using SVO do you think most need dispelling? I'd be interested to see a list of them. Or maybe putting it another way: in which areas do you think hard data is most lacking? What confusions and grey areas most need clearing up? We were talking on the vegoil-diesel list (re "Frying Squad") about the need to gather data, and if scientists weren't going to do it, and it seems they're not, or not soon, well-ordered user information would go a long way towards filling the gap. There definitely is a gap. Available research reports are few, and often contradictory. Often they don't even seem to be investigating the right thing, such as the lack of research on two-tank heated systems. We all know it won't work if it's cold. Will you be including the data on the German database? Best Keith ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Share the magic of Harry Potter with Yahoo!
