It can be made from coal, even wood.
It's too expensive to produce, to be practical.
Search it at Wikipedia - bet you can read about there a lot.

Subject: Synth Fuel

I was watching a show on the History Channel about the war with Germany,
and the narrator was telling about the maximized effort to blow up and
destroy the synthetic fuel plants in Germany.

WHAT??????

SYNTHETIC FUEL the man said.

I sat bolt upright in my chair - SYNTHETIC FUEL ..... that really caught
my attention.

But, ans luck would have it, manufacturing of synthetic fuel in Germany
was not mentioned again in the show.

Now I ask you, if the Germans were making enough synthetic  fuel to run
a war, why the sam heck are we not making synthetic fuel to run our
country.

Something stinks about this.

What say you all..
