An auditing firm warned that Earth Biofuels' debt and losses raised concerns about how much longer it could operate.

Earth Biofuels has a license from country music star Willie Nelson to sell a biofuel called BioWillie. Nelson once served on Earth Biofuels' board but stepped down April 20. biz.yahoo.com
