. . . Quick 50 trillion to "whoever" can build me a robot dinosaur car that can fly.

how did you know??? . . . i'm working on one right now. buahahahahah

i read somewhere that algea is the most efficient bio-fuel, (several magnitudes more efficient than corn or sugar, etc) it is like 50% pure veg oil or something and takes nothing from the food supply. the challanges are growing it quickly and inexpensively, contolling for water evaperation getting just the right strain of algae for the conditions, etc.

i'm thinking this could be my new project, algea farming. i think we need lots of grant money to fund this kind of home grown R&D, as well as cash prizes for the winners. :rastasmoke:

boaz Reviewed by boaz on 06-24-2008. Sen. McCain offers $300 million prize for new auto battery John McCain hopes to solve the country's energy crisis with cold hard cash. The presumed Republican nominee is proposing a $300 million government prize to whoever can develop an automobile battery that far surpasses existing technology. The bounty would equate to $1 for every man, woman and child in the country, "a small price to pay for helping to break the back of our oil dependency," McCain said in remarks prepared for delivery Monday at Fresno State University in California.
