Silly Chimp goofs around sniffing Bio-Deisel hankie / WaPo/Froomkin

BIODEISEL REPORT

Dan Froomkin...Washington Post:


"When invited to scoop out a sample of the finished product, the president did so, offering a beaker of biodiesel to reporters on an adjacent catwalk.

" 'Anybody want a sip?' he said playfully.

" 'After you, sir,' came the reply."

"Outside, POTUS witnessed a 'white handkerchief test,' in which said item was held to the exhaust pipe of a biodiesel-fueled tractor trailer after the driver revved the engine (at POTUS's order to 'crank it up.') . . . Allen Schaeffer, executive director, Diesel Technology Forum, climbed down with the hankerchief to display to the president. POTUS held in up to his face and appeared to sniff it. The handkerchief indeed seemed to pass the test. A smiling Mr. Bush held up the handkerchief, and said, 'Mr. Wizard!'

"But no rabbit appeared."

Here are AP photos of Bush holding the handerkchief, smelling the handkerchief, and holding the beaker.
