efuels are silly for car/light-truck scale things but still a contender* for things like flying and shipping.

* when the competition is hydrogen, methanol and alcohol you can have some pretty bad math and still be a contender

Let's wait for Sabine H. to make a video on the "nasty stuff" from current synthetic fuels.

I wish we were already successful with ITER... dreams...
