They've been on TV out here for the last few weeks. Lucas Oil is funding commercials to oppose Proposition B, which is to fight puppy mills and enforce animal rights. Pretty crappy if you ask me.

I guess they feel threatened regarding their animal oil products? My GP has whale oil in it.

Why would Lucas Oil have any interest, or lack thereof, in animal rights? Unless, of course, I'm missing something. lol

WBT says he has whale oil in his car - more animal rights means harder to get oil from animals, means more money Lucas needs to spend on development.

Why was my post deleted? It was a serious response, sperm whale oil was used in gear lube as a liquid wax ester.... up until 1972 as part of an endangered species Act....

So shame on you who deleted it.

I'm not. GM supercharger oil is a derivative of whale oil, from what I was told.

Oh. OK then. I didn't know that. I learned something new.
