Sounds to me like the "one that got away", I don't hear this kind of thinking very much and I'd say your customer has a weak or non-existent science background so I wouldn't try to approach it from a scientific point of view.
I would tell them it was a very intersesting perspective that you had not thought of before and ask them how they came to that conclusion? The closest analogy I can think of would be the recycling analogy. Would they think it would make more sense to store used paper in a warehouse and cut down new trees to make paper? There's probably a better analogy out there...\ kk James Slayden wrote: > Hola, > > In talking with someone recently who is interested in purchasing some > biodiesel, and interesting comment came up in our email exchange.
