Diesel and a jetfuel additive, yes. all the other goodies we use up in our fertilizers, plastics, paints, oils, lubricants, waxes, dyes, etc, etc, etc... I'm not so sure.

I only cut my hair and bathe for potential employers, so hook me up with a salary and free dental work and I'm yours.

Well, any insult from ustwo should generally be considered a compliment. I mean, the guy's so busy, it's an honor for me that he'd take time out of his busy day ironing his white dress shirts, polishing his "I'm a professional white man from the 60's" glasses and shaking his fists menacingly at children to notice li'l old me.
