ArkAngel: This is heavy

There's that word again. Is there some kind of problem with the Earth's gravity in 1985?

I'm more impressed by the fact that they found someone willing to drive 155 MPH in a Chevy S-10 pick-up.

Veggie powered? Amateurs.

Built out of and powered by vegetables.

This is nothing new. We all know about Rudolph Diesel's design. What next? Someone gets a vehicle that will go 200MPH using vegetable oil? Whoopteedoo!

Want to do something new? Develop a process that can produce a fuel that can be used in diesel engines that will cost

Ok. What is it? Is Fark and Drew in bed with Big Oil, the Middle East, Iran and/or the Illuminati?

Enter suggestion that the price for fuel should be of a value that does not exceed $2 and it gets removed.

/ wonder if this post will make it

Unfortunately if you want any hope of people conserving it, it needs to be taxed so that the price is no less than $5 per gallon. Of course if global warming is bogus and there is no end of oil in sight there is no point in conserving it.

Veggie oil? Meh. Call me when it is powered by vegetables, like, pizza.

"Veggie fuel may be available at any corner store in 1985, but here in 1955, I'm afraid it's a little hard to come by!"

Wow a 5.9 in an S-10. That's scary. I wonder where the driver puts his right foot.
