including testing oil quality, safety issues, washing
fuel, politics, why we drink beer when we brew and
much, much more!
How Much: $80 including pizza, beer and information

Why: Because its fun to make biodiesel! Oh, yeah, and
because ¡§here we have a serious problem: America is
addicted to oil, which is often imported from unstable
parts of the world¡¨ (G. W. Bush, January 2006) and
the world is running out of cheap oil, global warming
is already worse than we thought, and the planet is
dying of not-so-slow death. Do we love ourselves, do
we love our children, do we love the grandchildren we
haven¡¦t even met? Then do the right thing and kick
the oil addiction.
Who: James Burgess and Eric Chrisp have been declared
biodiesel Jedi by the New Mexico Solar Energy
Association ļ They have conducted numerous
presentations and workshops. Each has been running one
or more vehicles on home-brewed biodiesel for the last
two years.
For hands on experience please bring clothes headed
for the dust bin (you will get greasy), gloves,
goggles and respirators optional.
