HUGE Kadota fig tree that I can't eat due to, well, the laxative effect. Normally they just drop on the lawn and ferment and then turn to vinegar, but if I picked them and let them ferment under controlled circumstances and then set up an ILLEGAL STILL I could have home-grown and home made fuel for my car. It's seriously tempting especially because I get noticeably better mileage in the warmer months when the gas stations are selling the summer blend (with ethanol added). I could add my own in the winter when my mileage normally goes to hell.

I guess that's a real crime.
