Changed the oil today...
Well, they better keep quiet about it. Used piston engine oil from
aircraft burning 100LL contains fairly large amount of lead (that's why
it looks green-ish). Burning it will release the lead into atmosphere
in the surrounding area.
Of course, Jay's oil should be free of such hazard due to his Atlas
burning autofuel :-)

Jay: What do you do with the used oil? Our FBO wouldn't take it because
they were concerned it might somehow be contaminated. Rather than
accumulate a drum of waste oil that I would need to get a hazmat permit to
get rid of, I have the mechanic do it.
