Ah, but it wouldn't be a gas tank - it'd be an aluminum-galium tank.
Tank you.

Uh, we drive around with a water tank on our car? Is it smaller than a swimming pool? Or will it be like years back when people had a small tank hanging on their window so the car would he air conditioned. The more things change the more they stay the same? (you may quote me)

Re "we drive around with a water tank on our car?"
No, in the proposed system what the car would have in its tank would be the aluminum-gallium alloy. The exhaust would be water vapor.

That's fuel tank, not a vehicle that is a tank.
Then there was that time that Frank Burns took a spin in a tank on MASH, but never mind that - it didn't go over very well. Well, actually, it went over several tents quite well, including the women's shower. But never mind that, too.

Oh, shoot....
I thought you meant TANKS.
Did you see GOLDENEYE? Pierce (Bond) drove a tank and just about ruined every thing in this picuresque Russian town. Fun!

I like the chases in the Bond movies.......everything you least expect to happen, happens. I have to
out loud at the silliness of some of the stuff.....what do I mean "some"? All of it, really. Although, "Casino Royal" was a bit daunting. I liked the movie but, it seemed to take itself a little to seriously, I thought.....not like it's predecessors which were usually made and acted with tongue firmly planted in cheek.

Are you saying the Bond movies are
meant to be funny? I thought they were serious spy movies taken right from the CIA files...or whatever they call their spy group in Britain...

Re "....And you call this physics!?!?!?"
That reminds me of the line "You call this archaeology?"
