Both ethanol and soy oil requires more input energy than the resulting output (more so for ethanol) even factoring out sunlight.

What about the cooking oil reclamation? Granted, energy is needed to get it into that state, but its basically waste product afterwards that is disposed of.

Radioactive cars will be nuked by the Sierra Club. Also, so will the fuel underground in the North.

I didn't know the Sierra Clubs had any Nukes? Are they siding with the terrorists in head scarves?

Actually, cooking oil is reclaimed and is picked up and recycled by various companies, one is Baker's Commodities, and used for making soaps, and other non edible (by humans) materials.

Fine, if you own the restaurant. How much used cooking oil do you think is produced/day comapared to how much diesel is used/day?

Answer that, and you will have an understanding of the 'real' value of a gallon of used cooking oil; I doubt either of us could afford it.
