Nice logo!
Only problem: It looks like you're sucking the fuel out of the earth... like
dino-diesel!
May I recommend going back to the original logo and replacing the earth with
a plant or tree? That would be more accurate.

I finally gathered some info on biodiesel. A company in Masschusetts called
World Energy sells 7500 gallon shipments at ~$1.90 per gallon. (Shipments
are also available in 55 gallons or 5 gallons, but the price is over $4 a
gallon.)
My next step is to find out if I can get a tax credit, ta
Simple: Get Acrobat Reader.
This shows that conversion in the U.S. to EV's would drop CO2 but
drastically increase SOx and particulates emissions. Might as well just
convert to diesel and get similar results.

OK.
So as I said, it appears that the only advantage of bio-diesel over 5ppm ULS
dino-diesel is independence from foreign sources and supporting our own
citizen farmers.

Maybe. The EPA study (below) shows that bio-gas aka ethanol uses MORE
