    heard that potato juice was the original propellant used by Diesel in his engines, also saw a Japanese watch powered by connecting to postato on some TV programme some years ago.also potatoes are preferred option for exhibitors of Mains Electric Fencers to demonstrate their shock strength.as well were often used in my youth to prevent courting couples starting their cars in hurry by stuffing them up the exhaust pipes while they were "occupied".
