Maybe we should just start hounding Congress to support biodiesel in any way
possible, including paying farmers to grow soy for its production and
mandating its use over petroleum diesel.  They could do all of this in the
name of the WAR and Homeland Security.  They seem to be able to pass
anything else for these reasons, why not support for biodiesel?

Sincerely,

Craig Rogers
