Pardon the temporary new look. I have been using Randy Carver's "Rocky Mountain Sunrise" template (modified to show our own Eno River) for quite some time. If you've been using Firefox (which you should) you would have seen the semi-transparent panes with the Eno River image in the background. That "other" browser (IE) wouldn't show the transparency so the effect was lost. But the template had other problems which I thought I would get around to fixing but that involves teaching myself CSS among other things and I just haven't had the time. So - various aspects of this site have not been displaying properly in ANY browser. I've changed over to one of Netshine's more business-like templates simply because it works and it's uncluttered. Eventually I'll get back to the more "artsy" look.

You might not have seen this article - it
was on the obituary page of our paper. A Charlotte, NC man is fined
$1000 for using veggie oil in his car. He is theatened with further
federal fines and told to get a permit to use biofuel he has to put
up a $2500 bond. OK - so our laws have not kept up with the times
once again. And while I agree that if we're going to fund our
roads with fuel taxes then everyone needs to contribute their share
- I think the state needs to back off and stop harassing these
people until they get the system figured out and let everyone know
what the rules are.
