The CBS news article below reveals a major breakthrough in car engine design. This car engine gets over 50 mpg, goes from zero to 60 in four seconds, and runs on soybean oil! So why isn't this remarkable breakthrough making front page headlines in all major media? For the same reason that many other major energy breakthroughs have been reported but never given the headlines they deserve. Those who are reaping huge profits from oil sales have much more political and media influence than you might imagine.

Under the short, but revealing CBS article below, I've included links to several other major energy breakthroughs reported in the mainstream media which should be getting major attention. I invite you to explore these fascinating articles to see if these aren't legitimate inventions that should transform car engines and energy production. You can make a difference now by playing the role at which the media is so sadly failing. Spread the news on these amazing breakthroughs far and wide. Together, we can and will build a brighter future.

Kids Build Soybean-Fueled Car

The star at last week's Philadelphia Auto Show wasn't a sports car or an economy car. It was a sports-economy car — one that combines performance and practicality under one hood.

But as CBS News correspondent Steve Hartman reports in this week's Assignment America, the car that buyers have been waiting decades [for] comes from an unexpected source and runs on soybean bio-diesel fuel to boot.

A car that can go from zero to 60 in four seconds and get more than 50 miles to the gallon would be enough to pique any driver's interest. So who do we have to thank for it. Ford? GM? Toyota? No — just Victor, David, Cheeseborough, Bruce, and Kosi, five kids from the auto shop program at West Philadelphia High School.

The five kids, along with a handful of schoolmates, built the soybean-fueled car as an after-school project. It took them more than a year — rummaging for parts, configuring wires and learning as they went. As teacher Simon Hauger notes, these kids weren't exactly the cream of the academic crop

Unfortunately, until there is a fuel distribution system (this is the major problem with converting fuels) --- this is cool but unusable out in the real world :(

Your conclusion wreaks of GOP indoctrination and i object to your cavilier dismissal of converting fuels, problems to overcome notwithstanding!

Where can one can get a fillup of Soybean oil at 2am? Where can one buy one of these cars?

That is the problem currently. What is YOUR solution?

You're right. The current lack of 2 am availability of soybean fuel is an excellent indicator that there is no way to market this product in the foreseable future. I think you are right, we should just give up and accept the status quo (not).

Well, then, what's the solution? Here's a cool idea that is simply not currently viable in the marketplace.

Find a solution, don't just complain!

Mirage, i have an idea for you. Instead of complaining that a great idea is not "currently viable in the marketplace" why don't you come up with a solution instead of just complaining about it?

That's all i have to say to you until you start singing a can-do song.

Been there, done that. Its called the Electric Motorcycle. There will be one out in production this year. Also, its quite easy to take a bicycle and put a motor on it, which I've done.

What have you tried?
