That's quite true Pablo, I had totally forgotten about running the engine on biofuels. Thanks. But fossil fuels are still going to run out, although no-one knows when, for sure. And politically, countries don't like to have to rely on foreign energy sources.

Where I live, here in Pembrokeshire, we have recently had a demonstration of that, in that they have built a massive gas pipe line from here into England so that they can bring in LNG by ship here and hence avoid another unpleasant gas shortage situation like the one recently where the Russians stopped gas transportation to various countries.
