Re the CARS.gov program, here's a NY Times article that says a bit more about the program:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/27/business/27clunkers.html?_r=1 <http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/27/business/27clunkers.html?_r=1&scp=2&sq=Ca r%20Allowance%20Rebate%20System&st=cse> &scp=2&sq=Car%20Allowance%20Rebate%20System&st=cse It turns out that the program benefits a pretty limited segment of the population. Re Tickell, his original book was my first exposure to biofuels years ago. Today I drive an '85 Mercedes diesel on used sopapilla/chile relleno canola oil (this being Nuevo Mexico).

Politics aside, the intent has good merit. About 2 weeks ago, these folks where here in Hawaii and we saw the film. I recall buying Joshua's book many years ago and he was on the bleeding edge of taking this concept mainstream. It is a good movie, docu-drama about our insatiable appetite for the black gold. http://thefuelfilm.com/ If you are considering a new wrench transportation option, the timing seems to be apropos.
