Can Drain Oil be a valuable resource ?

When I change oil in my car I have some drain oil, I know I can take it to the recycle place, BUT that seems a waste. Can I filter it somehow and reuse it in the car? or can I put some in an oil can and just use it to oil hinges and such, or can I use it as bar oil for my chain saw, or can I mix it with gas for 2 cycle engines, or ??? other uses ???
