it would work as an alternate fuel and it is more abundant than anything else we have but to turn your car into a hydro would probably cost more than its worth lol

The problem is at this time it costs more to extract the stuff than the cost of petrol, so all this car development on fuel cells is pointless unless we can find a way of separating it with a much lower cost, and at the moment that is not happening, and maybe never will, Rick

1p a litre - they are having a large laugh ! All that money spent on the EU and interfering in other peoples countries.Wonder what it cost per day to fiddle about in Libya.One day they are telling us we are in real trouble and the next they are throwing money away.No wonder they won't let us vote to stay in or out of the EU.They are scared of the answer.:doh

I'm sure you're right there Luvgluv. We were traveling up and down to Aberystwyth on Tuesday and in the morning diesel was 139.9p on the way back it was 141.9 at 4 garages .
Strange that as I bet they'll be 140.9 today :doh
