Well, Garrett didn't use pellets or green anything, it was just water
doped with 25% battery acid to increase conductivity so he could get the
most gas.
The only one I've ever found that actually claimed to have a green
pellet was this guy from Denver back in the 30's or 20's....I'll keep my
eyes peeled for the story and name...Here is a short comment from
someone who read the powerball post;

I don't understand this 30 miles per engine thing and I'll ask him what
that means....
