Subject: Could liquid nitrogen replace gasoline?

   An experimental car called CoolLN2Car has been developed which uses
 liquid nitrogen for fuel. At present CoolLN2Car can travel 15 miles at 20
 miles per hour on 48 gallons of liquid nitrogen. This is not very good,
 but at least it proves the concept. One problem with this car is the use
 of a "horribly inefficient" air-driven motor. Further development is in
 progress.
