For about two years now I've been designing and bettering an idea for an alternative fuel engine. After 15 prototype designs I strongly believe it's finished. I know I need to get a patent and build a prototype but I have no money. (I'm 15) I have no idea where to go from here but I realize this is something that needs to continue progressing based off the world's growing need of becoming a society that doesn't rely on oil.

I know I'm not supposed to just hand out the specs of the engine and I realize that, yes, many people underestimate that a 15 year old could come up with the "cure" for society's biggest conflict. But that's where my problem lies in the first place. Besides, the first 4-cycle engine had to start somewhere right? If nobody had believed the inventor of it might have something where would we be today? I just need to know who I can trust and talk to.
Also, many people think I'm just a kid who cares about the future and its problems. This is more than that.

I have a 1999 pontiac sunfire 2-door and i am seriously considering purchasing a supercharger for what seems to be a fairly cheap price. The thing that seems different about it is that it just hooks up to your battery, Im not sure if i should get it or not. Ive heard that turbo's are betterso im not sure. What else can i do to make my car look/sound/drive sweet/fast? I just ordered a new exhaust tip, and a cold air intake, what else can i do without getting a whole new engine?

The goverment makes more money on taxes then the oil companies do on profits. The goverment regulations for dozen of local formulations cost us more then any proven benefit is worth.

I saw an ambulance the other day that went into on going traffic. It seemed like a dangerous move, but they were successful at it. Then it got me thinking that the cars in the on going traffic side had to manuever away from the ambulance, and easily could've caused a wreck. Does the ambulance keep going to their intended scene or do they stop to attend the wreck they caused?

OK I'm a University student in the UK, I've just found out there's a small, private Porsche workshop near me- just two or three guys working on the older models, souping them up and restoring, MOTs, that kind of thing.

I have no real mechanical knowledge but I am a walking encyclopedia when it comes to Porsche 911s so I guess you could say I have a book-learned knowledge.

Do you think it is worth contacting them and asking if I can do odd jobs around them just to get a more close-up knowledge of the cars or is it better off to stay away from these smaller, more specialised outfits?

I'd be happy just to make tea and mop the floor for starters as it would still be a CV entry and a 'foot in the door', as it were, in to the Porsche performance motor trade. What do you think?

What would happen if there was no more fuel at the gas pumps tomorrow, what would happen? What would be the longterm effects, and how would the US population cope?

In 2001, there was a simultaneous blockade of the 11 oil processing plants in the UK. This was organised by a group of haulage companies protesting the high price of fuel. Most gas pumps were out of fuel within 2 days. There was gas available for public transport and emergency services, but none for the average person. Luckily, it came to a peaceful conclusion a few days later. Fortunately, not many people in the mainstream UK population own guns, so there were no shootings in the line-ups for the remaining gas.
