Sooo..H2O + CO2 + energy = ????

Whatever the molecular representation of diesel/ethanol is? Busted..no. Plausible...maybe.

We are awash in oil. Can it really all be from biomass? Could it be that ammonia and pressure and other contributions naturally create crude?

Isn't it possible that it is renewable?

Hope this story is true but color me skeptical.

"Could it be that ammonia and pressure and other contributions naturally create crude?"

All you have to do is look at other planets. The moons of jupiter have OCEANS of hydrocarbons that would run your car. Did it come from dinosaurs?

Thoughts for the day

• Republicans win in 2012. They are going to try very hard to force an insider candidate like Gingrich or Romney on us.
  
• Conservatives are kept too busy. Downsize some, and give a day a week to joining/starting Tea Party action groups if you really want things to change.
  
• Get rid of the TV. Even the most aware people are swallowing subtle propaganda through the TV.
  
• Muslim atrocities in the USA are sure to punctuate the next few years. When they occur, try to open the public debate about muslim immigration. With each new muslim atrocity, the level of public discussion about the issue deserves to increase.

It is the inverse of combustion:

16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O + (energy) = 2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ for gasoline

24 CO₂ + 46 H₂O + (energy) = 2 C₁₂H₂₃ + 47 O₂ for diesel.

Ethanol = C₂H₆O
Diesel = in various combinations of n = 8 to 21
