Re: [Biofuel] BD Advocacy Group in US

2005-12-05 Thread Mike Weaver
I know.  I guess I'm just wondering what I might be getting myself 
into.  I already have a pet renewable energy group that takes up a huge 
amount of time and it seems like all they do is complain I don't do more! 

I've lived around DC for years and I know how things work here.  If it 
was money I was after this isn't the route I would take!

OTOH, if biodieseler weren't a bunch of independent-minded crackpots we 
all wouldn't be here, would we? ;-)

 Mike,
  I've have read your posts with interest and, at times with 
 amusement. I don't think that anyone who has followed your posts would 
 question your integrity or your motivation for forming a biodiesel 
 advocacy group.
  As for funding  ...  the advocacy sites I've been able to find, 
 all solicit funding. Worthy organizations such as Greenpeace, Sierra 
 Club and Amnesty International accept a fee for membership. Even JtF 
 accepts donations, and I urge everyone to contribute.
  I thank Mike Weaver for sticking his neck out, and offering to 
 organize a group to help keep us abreast of proposals/pending 
 legislation that would effect BD brewers in the US. I would be 
 willing to contribute to such a group.
