They've got some finance problems, according to their last Q they needed to secure a good loan by Jan 31, no news yet so they may be toast. But there's an interesting twist, they are processing "yellow grease" which can be refined into biodiesel. there was a big run in that stuff a while back - SSPC
I just found this guy tonight, he's one my list, thinking of a name... maybe lardass rat or something :)
