Where am I with a siphon when this stuff happens?!?! Makes you wonder how many other thousands of gallons of HHO there are out there, unused and still underground, just waiting for this stuff to happen! But jeez, god forbid you run it in your truck, I suppose it is better to let it flow into the groundwater than to steal a few pennies of taxes from the government!

Back in the '70s when fuel prices first started getting out of hand here in the northwest, where hydroelectric power is cheap, you could get free tanks full of heating oil, before the red dye, for free.
Problem was you had to take the tank too. Many people switched from oil heaters to electric, very few people now heat with diesel out here.

When we were growing up we poured all of the used fluids from the cars & airplanes on the ground as a weedblocker; I'm not sure how well it worked, cause there were still plenty to pull, but we dang sure harvested some HUGE produce! :o

The county would come around and periodically oil many of the dirt roads - using waste oil from service stations, the county garage, etc. It would eventually pack as hard as asphalt, but with no aggregate, man were those roads slick when it rained!!

They still do that on some of the back county roads around here instead of chip seal, it does keep the dust down pretty good.

They oil the dirt roads around my parts too but don't think it's legal to use waste oil anymore.
Too many nasty byproducts of combustion in used oil.

That's what makes me hesitant to burn it in my expensive machinery... I don't think filtering gets that nasty stuff out of there, does it?
