Requires some scaling up from current research goals.

Forget about making ethanol from it, derive electricity directly from the energy rich molecules.

Pour some tree sap, sugar beet or cane juice into the tank and go for a spin.

No joke Joe. I heard about the same researcher on the CBC science show March 31st. Juicy story.

If so, it is very well done. The news release and science appear quite genuine.

Sweet deal.
