Lightbulb Has anyone ever heard of Coates Diesel??

My father's old company used to do some work with a guy named George Coates, and they worked on developing a practical application of bio-diesel (in the 90's). Just curious if anyone else has heard of the company. I'm not positive, but I think he's based in the UK.
