PEN, on the way to the meeting... the night before I drove past fifteen miles of refineries, chem plants and every kind of petrochemical facility. It occurred to me, if the oil companies are our enemies we are in a hell of a place. The next day one of my key questions was "Are the oil companies our enemies or our customers for our biocrude/fuels?" The answer was always the same ... a studying look and thoughtful reponse ,,,, "CUSTOMERS, they want to be GREEN."
