“We can get fuel from fruit, from that shrub by the roadside, or from apples, weeds, saw-dust - almost anything! There is fuel in every bit of vegetable matter that can be fermented.

And it remains for someone to find out how this fuel can be produced commercially - better fuel at a cheaper price than we know now.”
Henry Ford

Charles Darwin
