I was just thinking the other day what will happen to
our cars if this gets perfected/affordable?
I personally feel BigBro WANTS to get rid of the old
cars (falsely saying they pollute) because you can't
get big tax $$ from people who keep their cars :-)
Will we end up scrapping our old cars? Karen
Nah, we can foil the EPA nuts by running alcohol, when and if it's
readily available. I won't even think seriously about E85 or straight
alcohol until I'm sure it'll be easy to find, then I'll build an
engine specifically for it (alcohol has less specific energy, but you
can get horsepower back by upping the compression, because alcohol is
high octane.) If it comes down to it, I'll *make* alcohol myself,
though it'll limit driving the car to what I can produce.
Remember, there are people out there with Olds Curved Dashes, and
other turn-of-the-century autos...
On digest mode, so I'm a little slow...
