In Reply to: kerosene or #1 diesel posted by SMHimrod on December 16, 2010 at 03:06:31:
In Bristol, IN kerosene is $3.76 per gallon. Diesel about .36 cheaper per gallon. My understanding is that they either are or are about the same thing. Now up in Michigan I see "low sulfer" stickers all over the fuel pumps, so I don't know what that will or will not do for the cause. In Bristol though, they won't sell you kerosene unless you admit to having a blue container. Ask the cashier to prepay at the kerosene pump and he or she will ask, "What color is your container" excitedly like the difference between winning a $million or going home empty handed. Knowing the winning answer is blue, I say "purple" to which they stand there and ask what purple means. I make up an answer like is the only color that the Coast Guard or NASA allows on their property, to which they still stand there trying to figure out whether or not I win the $million or go home empty handed. Good Lord, how this world has managed to make it this far without spinning right off of its axis without all of the help me rules and laws having been in place before...is beyond me.
I do have a question though for the experts. Why does diesel foam up when I'm filling up and kerosene does not if they are the same? I'm not saying they are or are not, just asking since I hear they are is all.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
