Yes, I live way up here in Clayton. I have for five years now, but before that I lived in Bosque Farms, where I grew up, and hauled gas in and around Albuquerque.

I used to hate that additive they put in gas down there. It allways seemed to make my 71 half ton pickup run bad. I'd allways get gas on the way to work out of Bernalio County so I'd still get pure gas.

I'm just bringing that up because I've heard of bio-diesel made with soy that is invironmentally cleaner and cheaper. I'm looking forward to being able to buy sume because it's able to run in all the old diesel engines too. I can change the engine in my 78 Chevy half ton to a diesel just like they did a lot of back in the seventies, when we had that first fuel crises.

Since the folk in Albuquerque have passed that law requiring that fuel aditive in reqular gas they can go ahead and make that bio-diesel available to all us old pickup owners so we're not forced to ride our horses just to get groceries in town.

That's funny because up here we got at least one way to keep from getting ripped off by the gas companies. Down there in Albuquerque, I remember them passing a law against horse manure. That way the rider must make sure there's a diaper on his horse or get a fine.

It's even funnier that all us tax payers are having to pay taxes so our government vehicles can buy real expensive gas. We at least got enough power there to have them start using bio-diesel. They even have a lot of their own fueling systems. They don't all just go to a gas station.

Oh well. Good thing I got a motorcycle too. :hm:
