Ken, you might be right about commercial grade bio being different. I remember seeing an invoice on the accounts payable lady's desk once at one of the Edison facilities, and it certainly was costly per gallon. I honestly have no recollection of what it was per gallon after breaking down the cost of buying it bulk, which was also on the invoice as unit price, but do remember at the time that it was pretty expensive as compared to fossil diesel. I shrugged it off as delivery cost or something of the nature, but remember thinking that at that price, bio didn't seem worth it. But then again, to stay ahead of game of pollution complainers and stuff, from a huge fleet owner's stand point, such as Edison, maybe its better to go out the higher cost so as not to be tagged later down the road as being evironmentally unfriendly, or some other potentially bad publicity.
