This reminds me of a segment I saw on one of those Tech Shows. I have not
seen it repeated since. A group of engineering students developed a fuel
system to run on vegetable oil.  They did a cross country trip in a van and
fueled-up
at McDonalds, BurgerKing...etc., using the old deepfry oil that were going
to be
trashed. They drove coast to coast and didn't spend a dime on fuel. Maybe
they
got hired by Ford, GM, or BP and paid lucrative salaries to "not" develop
this.
Who knows.....

When did you work there?  Did you see or witness any of these Subterene
tunnelers?
