My point was that oil is a fossil fuel. To be accurate the poll should have included natural gas and coal. Fossil fuel either needs to be deleted or each fossil fuel (i.e. coal, natural gas, oil) should be inclusive in the poll. I'm not trying to be a problem FA; just pointing out errors in the poll. Consider it constructive criticism friend. I only want to help; you are a valued member of the forum.

I would really like to get into doing R&D to produce algae boidiesel. I have been studying this for the last few years and I would like to set up greenhouse to do more work on this. One scientist in Texas has said that his system the potential of producing over 100,000 gallons of biodiesel per year on ONE ACRE! No other source of biodiesel oil even comes close to this. The research that is needed now is to find or develop a strain of algae that has the highest percentage of oil and reproduces quickly. This is just basic agricultural research but there aren't enough people doing this research.

Talking Geo-thermal

We have "Geo-Thermal" and love it, our electric bill dropped by almost half and we don't need to have fuel oil brought in anymore. And most of all, its much better for the enviroment and we like that .
