The most surprising thing is they can make it for the same price as diesel is now.

"This synthesis of fuel is called the Fischer-Tropsch process and it's been known since 1925.
Audi did not invent it. It's been used before by the countries that could not procure enough fuel by other means (i.e., Nazi Germany during WWII).
Also, it's quite energy inefficient, meaning that you will spend way , more energy than you'll be able to recover when you burn the fuel. "

I guess point # 5 is self-fulfilling prophesy; and this is true, they do really sell.
Does anyone here have access to ICE IFED (e.g. thru WebICE)?

I have WebICE and I believe I can access most of the Energy Contracts (US NatGas, US Power and all the Oil).
They are also all visible in TT, although I believe getting access to any of the legacy S2F products can be challenging.
What specifically u looking for?

Here's another reason there won't be any big rallies in oil (assuming no supply disruption).
Quoting
BP bought and stored more than $1.25 billion worth of oil, the equivalent of around 23 million barrels, during the first three months of the year, the company said.
BP said it will gradually unwind the stocks as the market structure narrowed.
"We expect the working capital inventory build to unwind over the rest of the year," a company spokesman said.
Although the volumes are large, they are still below those accumulated by some of the world's biggest trading houses during the first quarter.

Quoting

Quoting
Harold Hamm, the billionaire founder of Continental Resources, cashed out his company's oil-crash hedges in October—betting big on a rebound.

Quoting
"You're going to see $85 to $90 oil" in the next 3-6 months, said John Catsimatidis, Red Apple Group Chairman, on Feb. 17.
