As suggested, talk to customs if you have a query on the colour of the diesel used. Tractors are "deadly dangerous" and you're wondering about the colour of their diesel in 'their' tanks. You seem to have branched off into some conspiracy thoery.

kub wrote: » Check your facts there please or perhaps read the posters names a little slower, i never mentioned that tractors were " deadly dangerous", therefore your post is ridiculous as i have not branched off into any conspiracy theory.
kub wrote: » But as we are on the subject of dangerous, how many deaths have there been on farms relating to tractors? So in that case i actually agree with KCB.....see the C, there is no C in KUB.

Tara Shrilling Muck wrote: Well, you actually are branching off on a conspiracy theory when you start asking what colour fuel is in their tank and where they are going. A kub and a kcb in the same thread agreeing with each other. Coincidence or conspiracy theory?
Tara Shrilling Muck wrote: You agree that tractors are deadly dangerous, as per kcb. The conspiracy grows! I have no idea how many deaths are related to tractors on farms. My guess is that the tractors are rarely at fault, and usually it's the human element. You'll have to go elsewhere for the stats.
