Home Heating Options for Rural Midwest Residents?

ROFLMAO!

I'm looking for an excuse to come to Cleveland!

I don't think I can wear the chitlinetta T, though. Maybe the missus could...

"Commercially available" does not describe anything. Was it 1/2" wall? 1" wall? 2" wall. Ever hear a complaint from the Omaha Steak customers? They use some of the best designs.

There are dozens of companies that specialize in materials for shipping frozen or refrigerated products. Maybe you do have a better idea

I'm workin' on it.

yeah, I have two different ones but I'm out right now. Send me email and I'll put you on the list. One has Chitlin', the "Eat Me" pig on it. The logo pig on my web site. The other one has a female pig, Chitlinetta, with big hooters and a short skirt saying "Eat Me, you Fool!". Kind of a take on Mae West :-) Here's the graphic:

This one sells out in days after each run! :-)

When you come down you can also join my Frequent Porker Club. Get porked enough to fill the card and get a free meal :-) I love to watch the women contemplate getting porked 12 times at John G's.....

yeah, we have fun around here...

soooo....for someone considering trading vehicles, does trading two gasoline vehicles (pickup and passenger van) to go to diesel (?still) make sense?

In my area, the restauranteur has to pay to have the oil/grease taken away, and they take their good easy time about it, often forcing the operator to store the oil in outside the bin containers. It is a typical lazy monopoly business because like so much of the waste hauling industry, it is controlled by organized crime. To hell with them and their phoney morality/legality.-Jitney

The word is "effects", Steve, "Effects". (snip) The particulate matter could easily be extracted with a centrifuge. The silicone oil would mostly hydrolyze in the catalyzed transesterification process, and wash out with water separation. Any remainder would exit on the exhaust cycle, and pale to insignificance to the dirt in the crankcase. The engine oil has a small amount of silicone oil in it to control foaming anyway, and inevitably some of it blows by the piston rings into the upper cylinder. No big deal. Also, some airborne fine silica and silicates get past the air filter anyway, again, no big deal. It is not that the things you say are untrue, they are just not significant, and are blown out of proportion by the propagandizers of the MOB controlled grease collection business.-Jitney

In my parts, the only way to obtain an appreciable amount of waste cooking oil is to steal it from restaurants.

Instead of stealing it, you could ask them for it. I have never had one turn me down anywhere I've traveled.

No freaking way are they putting it in the plastic jugs!! Hahahahahaha A favorite pastime at the chicken shack is tossing the VERY HOT waste oil on an unsuspecting rat in the dumpster OR the empty 55 gallon metal drums outback where you probably 'obtain' it from.

No minimum wage kid is going to put burning hot oil in any plastic bottle ever.They certainly won't be paid to wait four hours or so for it to cool off at the end of the night.

Neon John made some very good points about the bad things that are in the oil. I never considered those. I'm glad I don't have a disel.

Smells nice when burned in a car though, and could create a lunch rush if you drove up and down the street with it. Hahahaha

I have a working relationship with my restaurants. It's not usually a minimum wage kid, it's a family member, but the kid does what the boss says, and if that's putting the oil back in the jugs, then that's what he does. If he doesn't, then another kid who will takes his place. I try not to collect from drums. nasty stuff ....

It's not solid. It's liquid at room temperature.

Well it all depends on if you Engine Brake or coast to a stop.

Not with chicken to fry!!

Typically it is done at night when you either filter it or change it. Part of closing ya know.

I can't believe they keep a bunch of empty jugs around just waiting to get rid of the grease. Sounds crazy to me after handling thousands and thousands of gallons of the stuff.

Reply to
frycook

He certainly has never had to filter the grease every night, with the big scoop of powder I can safely say.

depends on the oil. beef tallow and shortening will be solid, and wouldnt make as good a biofuel as something more liquid.
