yeah it's pretty ridiculous. Oil remains the easiest most efficient and cheapest form of fuel we have still, hands down. People get caught up in sci-fi movies and think inventing the next type of engine is just a matter of a couple of scientists and engineers getting together.
Inventing an engine is simple, anyone can do it. It takes a HELL of a lot more to make it run efficiently in both cost and consumption.
