One of Willie's bio-fuel guys was on C2CAM in the early 2000s.

As far as I can tell, compared to diesel, it's (roughly) 10% more expensive for 90% of the energy per gallon.

In addition, the hack forgot to include the additional energy cost of hauling around the less efficient fuel, not to mention additional stops for refueling.

Taxes? I doubt that they are on a BTU or other energy scale, so add that addition cost in too.

The 10% less energy per gallon probably yields a comparable decrease in power and miles per gallon.

About the same as the ethanol in gasoline scam.
