The CU bio diesel organization is hosting a contest for the design and decoration of our new mobile bio diesel trailer ESTER which will make bio diesel from waste vegetable oil.



There is a $200 prize and the claim that your art is on the trailer (which will be traveling around the country)


You can check out the web site for lots more information but basicaly


The Design Brief: Suggested artwork includes:
   • A CU Biodiesel logo (design a new one if you want)
   • A CU Logo
   • Crops/oil and fat sources we can use to make biodiesel (especially local ones like sunflower,
      rapeseed, or camelina!).
   • A local setting (like a field of sunflowers, the flatirons, CU campus, etc)

And if anyone is interested in helping out/volunteering their are tons of opportunities to help

I would love to meet all the members from your group. I am sure they are all cool and are joys to talk to. They must be completely accepting and having no preoccupations with anyone's viewpoints and live with blatant hypocrisy.

Oh right...

Im sorry,i just fail to see the hippocracy here.  Maybe in using corn for bio diesel, which i agree is absurd.  But as i stated in the previous post we make bio diesel out of waste vegetable oil.  As in oil that is from the dorm cafeterias and other restaurants who pay to have it disposed of if it is not used.  Or am i missing your point?  Please tell.

Not the bio diesel its self. It's your members. Driving their new V8 SUVs that money and daddy bought them, while living in their 5000 square foot air conditioned homes when they go back home and just frivolously wasting money at school since it isn't theirs. Then they help with some biodiesel operation and think they are saving the world and can look down on everyone else.

well that not really my problem what their parents did with their money but maybe you should meet the members of the group because i cant quite put my finger on who your talking about.  The whole purpose of the organization is education and awareness on alternative fuels.  Sounds more like your venting about the average boulder student.

Just ignore the man behind the curtain. He never has anything nice to say. Go on about your business.

That's not true. I am sure if I had some double vision going I would call you hot a bar. Unfortunately you would have to buy all my drinks until I couldn't see.

Few can grasp them. My hatred is like looking into the matrix.
