Just a question from a newbie to the group. I see some discussion on
bio-diesel in the group and it causes me to think  -Why cannot bio
diesel be used for home heating oil?
- Any thoughts from the group?

If your home ever cools off it turns into solid lard and you cannot use it
to warm up the house. Now you have to bring in the military with their flame
throwers to get it started again.


LOL

Biodiesel does not turn into solid lard.

It's a good thing it doesn't too, because for homes in Nova Scotia insurance
companies won't let you put your oil tank indoors, due to their fear of
clean-up costs if it leaks.  It doesn't make much sense to me, since
there's a hugely greater chance of a leak from a tank exposed to weather
and vandals, and the cleanup costs are still extreme, but that's insurance
companies for you.
