Washington Post fronting an article on biodiesel.
washingtonpost.com

I really need to buy a cheap old diesel car and experiment -- need to do it soon, obviously others will do the same thing.

I think it's an idea whose time has come. Personally I'd gladly pay an additional 50 cents a gallon if I could tell the Saudis to go to hell.

Ethanol or methanol needed for the process -- so Brazilian sugar cane can be one ingredient, and good old US soybeans.

It would change the dynamics of the world.

There is hardly any difference in spoken Urdu and Hindi. The scripts are different - Urdu has chosen a script similar to Arabic and Hindi has chosen a script closer to Sanskrit.

On the streets of New York city, Pakistanis and North Indians understand each other perfectly. Pakistanis watch Bollywood movies as much as any Indian. I have been asked by some Pakistanis how come I spoke such good Urdu.

>Example: You're born in Pakistan. Moslem and speaking Urdu.>

What about the Hindu who speaks Hindi? Is he better off than the Pakistani who speaks Urdu?
