I am always in envy of places and people in other parts of this world that I visit where there are almost as many diesel vehilcles on the road as gasoline fueled ones. Saint Kitts & Nevis are among those places.....except for the rust condusive climate....but I guess thats why they have Rain Forests there!

I just returned from a trip to Saint Kitts yesterday and as I was packing to leave, their small Island TV & Radio channel (ZIZ) was talking about the conversion of all fuels available there to BioFuels ie. Biodiesel and Ethanol through a cooporative program with the US ( thats right.. the USA!) and other countries to supply the ingredients such as grains, corn ect. They sited the successful BioFuel programs of other South American nations such as Venezuela which was started in 1999 and how they have achieved independence of foreign oil.

Yep, I am envious! I just wish our government would take a little more interest in making our own country into an independent BioFuel nation......
