Sony Creates Sugar Powered Battery
Sony has developed a 50 milliwatt "green" prototype battery that runs on sugars. The 1.5 inch (3.9 cm) battery can produce enough juice to run an mp3 player, along with a pair of speakers. The battery casing is made up of vegetable-based plastic and generates energy by breaking down sugar solution with enzymes.

I'm sure it's actually some highly regulated mixture, but I can dream right? :D
... now what if she had said, "Creamer?" Those crazy engineers probably would have made that work too somehow....
Soon we will be able to run our PCs on suger cubes :rockout:
(My apologies if you're not from America.)
on the other hand, if this new marvel can be made explosive by sony it will probably be the most explosive battery ever, what's going to happen when we send those laptops to the third-world kids?
If you ever cut your self, find a sugar cube and get some blood on to that. Now go light that sucker up! Burns nicely on blue flame (if I remember correctly), but melting sugar is extremely hot, so be carefull not to burn your self.
Also this is not to make you cut yourself on purpose just to test it out xD Cigar ashes do supposedly the same thing, but haven't tested it out my self.
KA.....BOOOOOOOM!!! rofl
