Can you turbo it?

Black holes are the most fuel-efficient engines in the universe, researchers say.

The most fuel efficient eh? Sounds great- though harnessing all that power and then getting it to the ground that might prove a bit tough.

Even if you could get a black hole engine in you car or bike- what are repercussions in the event of an accident?

“In News just to hand, the city of Adelaide has been compresses into an area the size of a golf ball following a minor accident between a scooter and a car. Astrophysicists were on the scene but failed to establish a cause for the accident. The accident has caused approximately 3-5 billion dollars worth of improvements…”

Yeah, I can see that perhaps the black hole engine thing might not be a winner in the marketing stakes. The threat of an event horizon/singularity or other cataclysmic event would kinda ride over whether it comes with Ipod connectors, curtain airbags etc.
