Working in the Chula Vista Elementary School District means I have access to many pencil sharpeners and their residue. I've been cleaning up, I take the residue and sort the wood from the lead, I keep vials (old prescription bottles) of the lead on my bike and whenever I fill it up I dump a little lead in the gas. As for the wood (fibre) I usually have it in my sandwich at lunch time, helps the digestive system. That's my solution for the unleaded fuel problem.

Lead???
Well George, I thought I had you, everybody knows the "lead" in a pencil is not lead but graphite. Then I realized you are using the graphite as a lubricant to make up for using automotive oil in your motorcycle.
