I think I lit the fuse on this thread but I'm just glad it is still
burning! :-) I
would also volunteer to run a similar thing here in Canada. Originally
my idea was just a kind of registry on my website which is sponsored by
the university I work for. My idea was that cars registered on my site
could be claimed to be part of a fleet of research vehicles. That may
be a valuable claim when the time comes that the powers try to put the
screws to home brewers. Joe www.nonprofitfuel.ca Mike Weaver wrote: I'm very serious. I would be willing to start it - my real business is to provide consulting to non-profits - I know how they work and I know how Capital Hill works. The primarly goal is to keep biodiesel-brewing legal and safe. I envision a DC-based non-profit that would keep tabs on legal issues, what big oil and big bd are up to, and lobby federal, state and local governments on behalf of BD. users. I also think classes and training would be a good idea. Names?

I'd pay.
