"Yet no matter how many times I ask for a number that would be considered reasonable not one single poster has come up with one."

How many times do you need it, Steady_on?? As I posted my estimate last week, "Cost per gallon: $700/228.6gal + $0.07/gal or $3.13/gallon. ($131.63 to produce each bbl)" and that's just for the cost of the feedstock at market prices. It doesn't count labor or capital costs.

Is there another way I can state it so you'll understand I'm giving you the estimate which you keep saying you never get?? Is it because you reject that Mr. Bordynuik will have to pay market prices for significant amounts of scrap plastic that you don't consider my estimate a valid or reasonable estimate?

Give me some insight why you keep asking for estimates, complaining that you never get any...and then don't count the estimates you do get. In what format do you need to see it before you count it as a valid estimate??

Seems all I head hear on this board that I pull numbers out of thin air... but there are no other estimates given...................Why is that?

Uh, we express the opinion that it's dishonest to reach a conclusion based on numbers pulled from thin air, but you don't mind doing so. Why is that?
