I am a Bay Area resident, and the BioFuel Oasis is my only source
for biodiesel and has been for 2 years.  I own 2 diesel vehicles: 

1981 300D Mercedes benz
1978 VW rabbit

I consume approximately 80 gallons of biodiesel per month--all
fuel from the oasis.  

I firmly believe that Biodeisel is an absolutely crucial fuel
source for the intermediary period between petroleum dependence
and petroleum independence.  Ethanol fuels are also 
important--however, ethanol fuels are made from valuable raw
materials.  Bio-diesel is made from waste vegetable oil, a waste
product, and is therefore more efficiently reducing the amount of
carbon being released into the atmosphere by using a material that
would otherwise be thrown away, rather than relying on production
of new raw materials.  
If the 10 fueling stations that you have decided to fund are all
ethanol, then you are making the mistake of eliminating diversity.
 It is crucial to support a diversity of intermediary technologies
during this time of transition to best meet the needs of a diverse
population.
