Who cares about oil?

A guy in Tennesse thinks we will soon be running all of our cars with metal.

Dr. Dave Beach has been doing research with combustable metal as fuel. Normally we do not have the technology to burn metal without reaching tempetures that would cause any car to explode (though it is used in space shuttles), but Beach has discovered that very finely ground metal shavings (we're talking nanometers here) are much easier to deal with.

Watch out Saudi Arabia.
