Years ago, I watched a movie, bout a man who invented an alternative fuel..I believe it took place in the early 40's but was a true account...in they end, the oil companies had him taken out...

Does anyone know the name of this movie?

I found this site, where there is so much information about alternative energy. Maybe, if you have some time, you may find what you are looking for ... there is a list of inventors and their history ...
http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blalternative_energy.htm

Personally I don't know of this movie.

Love,

Why odd?  What if it was too close to the bone?  *smile*
