You're right, it is a bunch of shit. Once in a while you get a whiff of just
how ugly unrestrained bureaucratic power can be. This is only different in
that it doesn't involve the IRS, Homeland Security, the INS, or whatever,
but just a couple of dumb goons in a corrupt Midwestern state. And it flies
in the face of rationality. It's a little like the stories about cops
arresting the guy who injures a thief trying to break into his house.

My big question regarding biodiesel is somewhat different. What happens when
we run out of French Fries? Seriously, has anyone stopped to consider the
ecological, etc., impact of running not just a few thousand but 200 million
+ vehicles on used cooking oil? I haven't really studied the situation, but
it does seem like a problem.
