Perhaps if the J-oil industry suffers a quick death there will still be a meaningful supply of oily seed fuel that can be burned relatively easily with a decent performance and controllability. At least until they go back to sunflower which looks a lot more promising.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone made a sunflower seed burning stove?
