Today, Governor Mike Easley signed bill S1272 into law. That bill exempts homebrew biodiesel from the NC road tax. The 30-cents-a-gallon cost reduction is certainly welcome. But, as Lyle recently commented, the bigger picture is really huge, because it allows the homebrewers and SVO-ers to get out of the “closet” as the State DOR does not care anymore that they don’t (usually) pay taxes on their fuel. So I need to get another bumper sticker:

THIS CAR IS POWERED BY HOMEBREW

Praise the lard!
