Great Use of Salvaged Oil from Yale Dining Halls???
I was browsing the latest "yale alumni" magazine isse [July/August, 2006] last weekend, something struck my attention. This small news bit can be found under the campus clips in the magazine. It is quite obvious that there must be huge amount of oil used in cooking in various dorms within the yale campus. Wow, what to do with so much used oils, well, it is Yale we are talking about. A smart scientist deciced to solvaged all the used oils from campus dining halls and took it to the lab to refine it??. The salvage Oil has been converted into fuel, most interetingly, one of those yale shuttle you see on the New Haven streets is running on the fuel that was made from cooked up oil from dining halls.....isn't amazing. Congrats to the scientist, labs and all those involved in it, a wonderful way of saving the environment, using the used oil effectively and for being innovative.

NewHavener's do say "Our City of New Haven does sleep!!?". New Haven is a constantly growing and quite active city of mixed cultures. The location of green in the midst of downtown, restaurants, beautiful church buildings, sky scrappers and the breathtakingly beautiful Yale buildings provide the special charm to the city of New Haven, in fact, Yale dignifies and signifies the city of New Haven, formed during 1666, one of the oldest city and county, she has 30towns under her county belly.
