A Brilliant Idea!

With the energy crisis and everyone concerned about fuel prices, I am sure there are many people out there who have innovative ideas that could help solve the problem.

There must be some way to run cars on methane. If we could harness the natural methane we all produce we could fuel our cars with it.

Instead of "smart" cars, we could have "fart" cars!!

Anyone else got a brilliant idea??

Roxley, your to late..... any car can be adapted to run on methane gas. all it requires is a fuel tank for natural or methane gas. and a special carburator.Furthurmore, the chinese and i am sure some other peoples, have a device that captures and stores methane gas from home sewage and kitchen waste. the only thing that should be added to methane gas is an odorant..methane is odorless and if there is a leak and or, build up of fuel in the air,all you need is spark and, Boom...This odorant also exists they add it to propane gas.All the technology we need to end the( oil manufactured crisis) has already been invented and developed..Its just sitting there on a shelf,,,, waiting for the public to demand it....Methane ,solar, alcohol, wind power...already there. ...vince

What makes you think that methane would be any less expensive than oil derivatives? Anyway, would you be the first to volunteer to shovel all that shit?

The wave of the future might be helium. You just suck a few lungsful and float away to wherever you are going! Why bother with a car?

Many people with whom I am acquainted are already airheads. Just replace the oxygen with helium. They would never know the difference!

I like your logic, Milt.

I know plenty of airheads, too!

The skies would be pretty crowded!

And don't forget that broccoli has that effect on some people too, so the price of that might skyrocket as well, pickle!
