I had a dream a few weeks ago about designing a car to run on flour...You know
the corn stuff!

Weve all heard of the dangers of powders in the air in industry... why not
build a car (a diesel  CI obviously) that runs on powders?...Powdered
anything. I should post this on an AE site and I may yet...but AFAIK this is a
world exclusive!

In my youth I used to work for our Coal Board in the research dept; and
actually worked on a fluidised bed that ran on pulverised coal...The research
was meant to lead to the ability to burn pulverised domestic/industrial waste
to produce low calorific gasses...So lets hit the coal with a hammer and throw
it in the intake!
