S2, R1, A19, Rat, Scoot, Lurqerdude, et al, and et el,

I was wondering if you have come across much info in the topic of Biodiesel. It's basically soy bean oil that is processed in a manner that it can be burned inside today's diesel engines and home oil burners.

I'm really hyped up about this technology in an investment sense. I'm even more hyped up about it than I am in the the area of digital rights management. (That other topic that I continually bring up as a potentially huge market).

I see potential for a lot of money to be made in these sectors but can't quite figure out who will profit the most from it.

Here in NY I'm beginning to signs of Biodiesel's acceptance.
One of our accounts is a home heating and diesel fuel depot for the large tanker trucks. They have begun setting up one of their reserve tanks to hold biodiesel and they expect it to be a big seller for them.

Already the US Post Office's fleet is burning the stuff. As are many gov't agencies and city agencies. I believe Con Edison is also using for their large vehicles.

If this biodiesel stuff can get a tax incentive placed upon it (as hopefully it will in the coming months) it could really give the world a large technological push to make the cost of it cheaper to produce.

The solution of many of the world's problems lie trapped inside a tiny soy bean.

Alas, we begin to see a turn back towards natural solutions.

The world seems a little bit more beautiful with that one thought.

Let's put our brains together and find out how to invest in this direction or decide if it's something we should wait for.
