This is your old friend in Seattle looking to reconnect. I tried e-mailing but it didn't go through. Hope you get this!

looks like there are still quite some questions in the raupo story.
As I said, we're lauching the NZ ning site for transition fuels to give us some more options to communicate.
I'm inviting the rest of the people at the meeting in Kaiwaka today, so hopefully by next week we'll have some discussion on that site. Also about raupo.
Would be good if you could copy your last post about raupo there.

We've started a new Ning site for sustainable fuels to focus on NZ: http://transitionfuelsnz.ning.com/

Great idea with the biogas.
About the raupo, we had several people interested in trying Raupo on our meeting last week in Kaiwaka. One of them had a natural marsh with plenty of raupo.
I'm a wastewater engineer myself and am working for local council here. Indeed, it might be a good idea trying to get funding to try this raupo idea.

Hopefully see you on the other site.

Cheers,
Geert

How much do you know about methane, and feed stocks. I grow a lot of potatoes and wanted to put the tops in the digester with horse manure and a feed stock.

Let me know if we could help each other,

Regards,
Chris.
