Diesel is the answer, but, we are too soured on it in this country and the EPA has effectively killed it here as well. The exhaust treatment systems are crazy complicated now.

I recently read a piece in a WW II magazine about Japan's conduct in Korea. (I truly love having a kid that loves history!) I then talked to my Korean neighbors about it.

It is war, but, seems like they went above and beyond to impose their will on the populace. I have not read about China, but, suspect it was similar. After reading that piece and speaking to my neighbors, became clear to me why things have not been "forgotten" about WW II.

As always, Kevin thanks for keeping us informed. Appears to be something afoot in the valuation of the stock. Suspect that it is a good development for those of us with shares.
Solazyme (SZYM +9%) soars after reporting a smaller-than-expected Q1 loss and the biofuels company says it's on track to begin commercial production by early 2014 and reach full capacity in 12-18 months - "unquestionably the first player in the algae arena to claim such a feat," praises Raymond James' Pavel Molchanov.

Have you guys got the "millions of people read this discussion, do you really want to post this?" message? That is a bit chilling! I have seen it several times for rather innocuous message content.

JC, what's on your list for used vehicles? Are you going to utilize one of the manufacturers certified programs? The supply of high quality used vehicles is rather thin these days. The low sales rate of recent years has suppressed the supply of quality used vehicles. It almost makes sense to go new?

I watched a bit of Buffet this a.m. as well. Not sure his folksy demeanor really matches up with the ruthless businessman that he really is in life? Got a bit old when I started thinking about some of the "help" he offered in the strange times of 08-09.
