Bob Teixeira of Charlotte bought soybean oil in 5-gallon jugs at Costco, spending about 30% more than diesel would cost.
His reward, from a state that heavily promotes alternative fuels: a $1,000 fine.

Why would he buy something 30% more expensive than diesel?
Considering the energy used to make the soybean oil, he's probably causing more pollution this way.
What a tool.
Unless I've got something wrong and I'm the tool.
Either way..
I don't know. I don't really get it either.

Don't you think that I did?
This is one of the stupidest things that a state agency has ever done. They are definitely out to hurt the little guy, and lying about that makes it worse.
