And why? You may well ask! A researcher left his coffee overnight and in the morning he found the cold cup with an oily residue around the rim, so he began to do a few experiements and he now believes that he can turn coffee into fuel and flog it for $1 a gallon. Lets get that antrepreneur spirit going in Oldham's allotments and back yards and show the Arabs a thing or two. Oldham's answer to "Starbucks" will be "The Three in One" where you refuel, refuel and refuel. (Coffee, Fish and Chips, Fuel). As Karin said, "Gas up in more ways than one."

But that guy who thinks he can make petrol from coffee beans has gone 'round the twist! Sean..I'm the one who called it "gas" - not Mick....he calls it proppa like...petrol. (It was meant as a double entendre.) Edited by Karin, Wednesday, 7. January 2009, 20:15.
