Why don´t they work on a project to using urine as a propellant fuel? or separating hydrogen from oxygen in water?

Biofuels, to date, have proven to create more pollution than “fossil” fuels. How much pollution does whiskey powered cars produce and will we see a rise of drunk driving arrests in which the driver is completely sober but the car needs several gallons of coffee and a few days in the impound lot before it can make the same claim?

Biofuels, to date, have proven to create more pollution than fossil fuels. Nuclear is the only long term solution for our energy needs. The whole biofuel movement is a government sponsored inefficient make-work project.

or separating hydrogen from oxygen in water? It has something to do with conservation of energy and entropy.

In New Orleans, the whiskey wouldn’t make it to the vehicle. We’d all be walking!

Only whiskey by-products thank goodness. There should be a lot of that in Scotland. :)

No, no, no . . . . dilithium crystals!! Dilithium crystals, in all Star Trek series, were shown to be an essential component for a starship's faster than light drive, or warp drive, since they were necessary to regulate the matter-antimatter reactions needed to generate the required energy.
