[Bioconversion] Agglomerations

[Les Blevins]

Jeff,

Keep at it Jeff, you will soon become the world's leading expert on making 
fuel in (or with) your process. A truly modern pioneer. Fame and fortune are 
just around the corner. (smile)

If I understand correctly you are now able to use a food disposal to make 
"slop" from water and old newspapers,, and now you are working to make the 
fireballs out of the slop in a rotating device such as a concrete mixer or 
other improvised device. Is that how you would sum it up?

I am continuing to work at promoting my waste and biomass furnace. I hope 
fireballs in sizes from say marbles up to ping pong balls will be used in my 
equipment to heat homes and other small spaces, and in sizes from oranges to 
basketballs will be used to heat bigger commercial spaces.
