It's hard to imagine anyone who has ever driven a diesel falling out of love with them. I say that as a parent of a child with asthma, in which I suspect Japan's diesel-polluted air is a significant aggravating factor. A hearty "Amen!" to the need for cleaner engines. It would be awesome to see what could result from the right combination of biofuels and better engines. It's a shame when diesel technology is written off in people's minds because they can't envision or imagine it as potentially much cleaner than it has been in the past.
