They're trying to liquefy coal, and turn hydrogen into a solid (sodium borohydride). Carburetors turn gasoline into a vapor. Why can't people just be happy with the way things are?

yeah, why did some idiot invent the internal combustion engine when we had steam engines? And don't get me started on those atuomobiles! What was wrong with plain old horse power....! [sarc]

Damn straight. I'll have my Congresscritter Dan Lungren introduce a bill to outlaw phase conversion and energy conversion and leave things the way they are.

Rubber - ought be liquid like it comes right out of the tree ... hey - no more tires or at least a much smoother ride!

Bourbon - leave it like a gas the way it come (not comes, mind you!!) out of the still ... hey no more Saturday nites!

Let's get a new engine that burns fuel like a man would - liquid! None of them sissy intermediate stages like gasification an' mixing with air an' stuff.

Do it the ol' way so we can say: "that blowed up real good!!"

Sorry coloradan to go on this way but I'm assumin' you're on this parody trail - as we know - a trail with no end ...
