Gpa Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I believe this might be a trick question but my guess is: The high fructose corn syrup since it is the main source of calories/energy in the listed ingredients and if his "time machine" is his body. It wouldn't be the caffeine because it contains no calories. It only stimulates the increased production of energy from stored carbohydrates.

servantx Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 My guess: 1. Potassium Potassium reacting with water to produce potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. 2K(s) + 2H2O(l) -> 2KOH(aq) + H2(g) 2. KNO3 Sugar Propellant 65% KNO3 (oxidizer) and 35% Sugar 3. Sodium Fuel Cell sodium borohydride/hydrogen peroxide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Transient001, Do you know that the particle scientists of CERN mentioned Eloi Cole's name on 4 July live video stream, the date of Hiiggs Boson announcement? I spent a few hours watching the live video stream and I am sure that I didn't hear it wrong. Wish I recorded that. They said that the discovery of Higgs Boson could be sooner if he didn't sabotage.
