Hello All,
My father-in-law, a diesel
mechanic, has helped me build a BD processor, travelled with me from NY to
Florida to get an clean, old Mercedes that just loves BD. He is a wonderful man.
We differ in opinion on one particular point re: biodiesel.
He says: "Lay low in the high grass."
I say: "Spread the word, change the
world."
I just retired after teaching high school biology
for 32 years. I was asked to come back, sort of as a guest speaker. I got to
spend two days w. former students, now taking AP Biology. I demonstrated
the basic idea of making biodiesel .... 1L in a PET bottle .... saw the
glycerine split .... had bd as diff. stages of wash and showed that
the bd I made in class wash poor quality (didn't pass the wash test). This
was enthusiastically received, ... much discussion, and I left them with
the assurance that I would come back to the chem. class when they knew about
titration and were doing the organic chem unit.
My car's license plate is BD 100. I talk to
friends, acquaintences, or any one who expresses an interest in bd or any
alternate energy system. I've had a few "tours" of my processing setup.
Several recent posts seem to be suggesting that we
"lay low" and expand as a underground force. I just am interested in the views
of other list members. i.e. Do we "lay low", or "spread the word'?
Thanks,
Tom |
