Man, I don't know what you people are getting all excited about with that article... Straight-up facts, no bias whatsoever. "We're going to have lots of biodiesel," is what I took away from the article. What's so bad about that? The concept of biodiesel and ethanol as short-term measures to stretch what's left of the oil supply on this planet, while new technology is developed, is a GREAT idea. It's especially great if we can use what otherwise would end up being dumped in landfills, rivers, lakes, etc.. Restaurants and food processing plants throw away millions and millions and millions of gallons of the raw material to make biodiesel and ethanol every year. What is bad about the article is not the article itself, but what the article is describing: Plants SPECIFICALLY built to make biodiesel. They're just going to take virgin oil-producing seed, squeeze it to get the oil, then throw the rest away!
