  1. Renewable resource, anyone? on Brew Your Own Auto Fuel For 41 Cents A Gallon · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I believe that much of the attraction of a plant-based fuel is that we can keep making more of it. Petroleum reserves are a large, but finite, resource. Oil-bearing plants of one type or another can be grown in many parts of the world, so there is less of a geographical monopoly on the resource. I'm not terribly fond of tofu, but perhaps I can trick my car into ingesting it...

  3. My Quest is for an old D&D-themed book... help on D&D Is 30 · · Score: 1

    I was the only one in my high school with the patience to learn enough of the rules to DM. We'd do gifted class, lunchtimes, etc. I remember reading a novel back then, that I've looked for since with no luck. It featured a group (high school or college, can't remember for sure) with a teacher for a DM, who sends them into the game for real. Featured a boy in a wheelchair who becomes a dwarf; a girl priest with a robe that reacted like a concrete wall; etc. What I remember most is the 'realistic' treatment it tried to give the situation, as far as the characters' feelings and reactions to being inside the game. Can anyone help me ID (or ID&D) this book? Thanks!
