There's some question about whether the company in question is doing what they say they're doing. If they're producing the equivalent of light sweet crude, why aren't they selling it as such, instead of to a place that sprays it on pet food? Is it possible that they're processing tons of turkey guts and just extracting turkey fat?
Excellent point. The DOE says the feedstock is the "largest single component of biodiesel productions costs." [page 4]
Thought experiement: If you got 100% volume yields at zero cost when converting veg. oil to biodiesel, how much veg oil do you have to buy to get a cheaper per-gallon price than what dino-diesel costs at the pump?
Or you could just install Firefox, with the foxie plugin, and get completely secure browsing for all sites, and great Triton/IE support for intranet/extranet legacy webapps.
To be clear, Foxie is a product which makes IE more like Firefox, not a plugin for Firefox to make it work with IE-specific scripting/ActiveX.
In order to simplify installation of NT and 2K, I use the unattended installation feature which I believe comes with the developers pack. You can put very basic information like the machine's name, the license key, network id, etc in an answer file ON A FLOPPY DISK (the winnt.sif file), and have the installation CD install unattended for a single machine or on a series of machines.
I have yet to find a way to do this without a floppy drive, though I'd love to do so.
My experiences with the game indicate that anyone who suggests that it be played should be immediately beaten about the head and torso with a stick approximately the size of a broom handle. Actually, broom handles work very well for this purpose. Make sure that you use an all wood model rather than metal clad or metal threaded. You don't want to do permanent damage, just teach a very serious lesson. Save your time and your sanity. Don't play Mao. Beat the crap out of your so-called friend.

Agreed. That single mis-statement pretty much invalidates everything else said. Not.
A link to the well-reasoned skeptics? Here's one: http://www.mindfully.org/Technology/2005/Changing- World-Technologies-Palmer9apr05.htm
