    Energy Emergencies Declared After BP Refinery Fire In Indiana

    Topline

    The U.S. Department of Transportation has declared a regional emergency for Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin after a fire shut down the BP oil refinery in Whiting, Ind., the largest in the Midwest, though there hasn't been an impact on gas prices so far.

    Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) also signed a similar statewide energy emergency order Saturday, saying regulations "will not hinder the delivery of gas and diesel to stations in Michigan."

    Biden is taking credit for gas prices coming down. Even though it's because people are driving less, I know that I am.

    I found a plan online to make a wood gasifier. Apparently during WWII a lot of farmers had to use wood gas to run their tractors. I can find it and post it for you Meat-Chicken, Hellinois and Cheesehead guys if you think you will need it. I doubt modern car/truck engines would react favorably to it, but...

    I've got the " Make your own alcohol" book...

    My friend used to run a midget (racecar), old Stewart torsion bar chassis with a 2300cc Pinto engine on alcohol. He had to drain and flush the fuel system after every Sat. night of racing, corrosion. IIRC he put viton seals in the injectors and pump, and ran it about 28% richer than he would have with gasoline, less timing.
