Want Cheap Oil? Check this out.

The following links are about a man in Carthage MO. He has had the ability to make oil from ANY carbon based material on earth (which is pretty much anything). Years and years ago he had a special on TV about this process. People doubted him until a guy from NY and Tyson's chicken and turkey products signed on. After that they started making OIL out of turkey guts, legs, etc.

This is the real deal. He can take trash from landfills and turn it into oil right now. Yet he isnt allowed to operate to supply oil to meet our energy needs. Together with other doners he built a multi million dollar factory in Carthage MO that is operating right now. Its clean, effective, and most of all could be VERY cheap.

He has been hushed for years and years. Hopefully this crunch will help bring light to his quest. Read up folks, its far more interesting than I can spell out.

From your first link in year 2000:
Private investors, who have chipped in $40 million to develop the process, aren't the only ones who are impressed. The federal government has granted more than $12 million to push the work along. "We will be able to make oil for $8 to $12 a barrel," says Paul Baskis, the inventor of the process. "We are going to be able to switch to a carbohydrate economy."

Second link year 2006:
Back then, when the process was still experimental, Appel predicted that the Carthage plant would crank out oil for about $15 a barrel and rack up profits from day one. ..............................................Prod uction costs turned out to be $80 per barrel, meaning that for most of the plant's working life Appel has lost about $40 per barrel. As recently as last April, he feared the whole operation might implode. "There have definitely been growing pains," he says. "We have made mistakes. We were too aggressive in our earlier projections."

But now, after more than $100 million in private funding and $17 million in government grants, several hurdles have tumbled. The Carthage plant has been optimized and is expected to turn a small profit. A tax credit has leveled the playing field with other renewable fuels like biodiesel and ethanol. Appel is confident that new ozone scrubbers and other equipment will abate the odors. State officials are warily optimistic. "We are not hoping to shut them down [permanently] and take away jobs," says Connie Patterson, spokesperson for the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. "We have given them a window of opportunity to solve the problem."


Guess some of the answers are right there. The government has not held this up in any way, but has instead helped, however the plant has not been as efficient as predicted.
