Do-it-yourself bio-diesel the fun way!

Here's a fun project for the kids: duplicate this method.

Seems that one could power their vehicle just on roadkill. I'd pay good money to see someone try (if I had any).

Is it hard to produce bio-diesel?

Soylent car fuel, anyone?

I thought about that back when I saw a special on a forensic science open-lab called the Body Farm. In it they talked about how the bodies explode from the build-up of methane and hydrogen sulfide. Made me wish they could capture all the methane and use it to power stuff. Hey... no disrespect to the dead, but that'd be one way to help get rid of the bodies and generate power in Louisiana.
