Mad Scientist

Here is Chris making his first batch of bio diesel. He used all of my cooking oil last weekend experimenting. He is now on the city council for environmental studies. He is trying to figure out a way to start a co-op here in Pleasant View for alternative fuel. Since 98.9 % of people drive a monster truck here, the city council thinks our little town could be the leader in "green".Chris has had fun meeting with all of the local business owners trying to collect samples of their discarded oil to see if it could be recycled and used to make bio diesel. He is so excited. I am really proud of him.
He has told himself if he makes and stores 4 tanks of gas he can run out and buy a diesel truck. They are for sale on every corner here...CHEAP!! We WILL pay cash ,though. (:
