Consider a compact device which converts plentiful, renewable organic matter into energy suitable for powering a vehicle. It will start and run in a wide range of temperatures and terrains, will operate for at least twelve hours on a single fueiling, has a small carbon footprint and produces few other pollutants; water one ofd the main products of combustion.

Maintenance is relatively simple, as is operation.

This very reliable but under utilized energy source is not experimental technology. It has been available for years In these days of energy crises and climate concerns, shoud we not consider making more use of this technology>

I was betting you or JakobVirgil would catch it. I'm going to give you that - it is close enough.
