Pacific biofuel now available in Santa Cruz!

I don't drive, I don't own a vehicule and don't want any for now but this is great news!
A few days ago a Pacific biofuel station opened in Santa Cruz.
At some point I'll try to take some pictures of the site.
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!

that's excellent! the nearest place i can buy b100 is like 35 miles away, and is only open during normal business hours (like when i'm at work). i had to do some modification to my fuel system to run straight vegetable oil, but at least nobody has to die in the middle east to fill my tank. and it's cleaner. and renewable. and smells like tortilla strips cooking in oil...

Well, yo know, this was was needed, I think the nearest one was in the Bay area, somewhere...
Now, vegetable oil smell is what it is, and anyone who rants about it should come to me and I'd just say what about gasoline smell, it's as horrible, only, it's human but...we're used to it...
So sad...
Now, what about some Personal Rapid Transit solutions as well.
This is in the works in Santa Cruz, but it's been for a long time...
It is pricey to get it going and try it so it's not easy, but this would be great for simple chores instead of having to use a car...they even have some sun powered ones!

ya, the ideal would be to have an electric vehicle that is charged by solar energy.

Exactly!!
I think those PRT pods are interesting, plus they run off the ground, not using the existing space, a good solution to traffic and easy shopping around.
It seems those pods would do a loop from the Boardwalk to UCSC's campus and to a local state park and so on, a nice loop, gosh I'd love it.
Next, we should have the tgv, the French's (or any other one for that matter) fast train/bullet train, come on California!

considering all the soccer moms in my area driving their lonely selves all around town in their excursions and escalades, i'm not exactly hopeful...
