An article at Wired.com is raving about biodiesel. It has alot of good information about the proposed legislation and the use of biodiesel by many large municipal fleets."Minnesota has passed a law requiring that all diesel fuel in the state contain 2 percent biodiesel by 2005. Similar legislation was introduced in Ohio last September. And provisions in the energy bill, currently being hotly debated in the Senate, would give a tax break for biodiesel."
They also talk about how this is exactly what Rudolf Diesel had envisioned:"The idea of fueling diesel engines with vegetable oil is not new. When inventor Rudolf Diesel first showed his engine at the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris, it was running on 100 percent peanut oil."
There are also many good resources and links in and around this article.
