what kind of fuel they will use when the oil (petrol) vanishes?

liquid Hydrogen? solar energy? or we will return back to the life as we were before petrol.

Alcohol would be one possibility to substitute oil, but you'd be burning 3x the amount and there's no lubrication properties. I can see what you're trying to brainstorm here, but many people have attempted a perpetual energy machine and failed. Almost everything is finite and will break or suffer from frictional loss. If it is possible, we sure don't have the technology to do it yet.

Oh my. The whole idea sounds great and all, for old people maybe. Whether or not it would work doesn't matter. Either way, it would be way too ******* slow and boring. Maybe I would invest in one when I retire, untill then... As for using alcahol to substiture oil. That's insain. Who the hell would waste alcohol by burning it in a car that might only go 20 miles an hour. I might, it I were going to drive it off a cliff. LOL. Just giving you guys a hard time.

Witts.com look at the self powered generator. Interesting quantum physics.
