Cody & Brian,

I don't know if your travel route is set but if not consider making a swing through southern Illinois for a courtesy fill up of the sweetest looking B100 you've ever seen. 

We're an Illinois Correctional Industries program located on the banks of the Mississippi near Chester, the home of Popeye.  We produce biodiesel from WVO collected through our Waste Removal & Recycling Program (WRRP). We use the fuel to power the equipment and vehicles used in our WRRP. In essence we're recycling wvo to fuel the recycling services we provide to local communities creating a fuel sustainable operation and reducing those costs by almost 75%.

We're trying to show that in Illinois the "government" can lead by example when it comes to alternative fuels and do it in a cost effective manner.

We've attached a pic of our 1999 Dodge BioTruck one of the vehicles we've weaned off dino diesel and put on a vegetarian diet.  We've "weaned" our semi tractors, farm tractors, trash trucks, reefer units and just about everything else in our fleet that runs on diesel.

If you guys wander this far north let us know: we'll meet you at the Popeye statue with a couple of slabs of 17th Street Barbeque ribs picked by Bon Appetit as the best in the country.
