[AT] Bio-diesel

[George Willer]

Charlie,

Be prepared for inflation due to the limited number of French fries limiting 
the amount of cooking oil available.  It will quickly become as valuable as 
crude oil.

It reminds me of the friend from long ago who thought we could substitute 
liquefied gas from fermenting horse manure for our fossil fuel.  He never 
gave any thought at all about how many horses it would take and how much 
oats and hay they would need.

You and Spencer should flip a coin to see which one gets to use the limited 
supply.  :-)

George Willer
