His previous posts were relevant, but very spammy.

This latest one is over the line. Cook stoves on EcoModder? Nuh uh!
Spamming is bad. But discussing uses of biodiesel is good, though not in the ecomodder section. Thanx for moving it

My stove is supposed to use kerosene and diesel, but biodiesel doesn't seem to work.
For an alcohol stove, you can use a soda can instead of a fancy $100 gizmo weighting over a pound. Plus, alcohol isn't that cheap, at least where I live. 1 liter of diesel or gasoline here costs around US$1, biodiesel a few cents less, while a liter of alcohol goes for somewhere around US$30.
