   @pepsi_man @Evil_Bender @sickburnbro It can be turned into biodiesel. It can be made to work but it just doesn't have the same energy density of a regular crop (corn). Also, hemp's time has unfortunately come and gone because synthetic rope/fabric making materials are superior still.

     @EvilSandmich @pepsi_man @Evil_Bender Synthetic ropes are only exceedingly superior in places with high moisture, like rigging on boats.

     Or........ we could use our synthetic oils to "grease" the ropes like man has done for thousands of years

     @Evil_Bender @EvilSandmich @pepsi_man indeed, lots of options. But that's why I was specifying rigging - keeping stuff greased can be tough, so having something that doesn't rot is good for something where you don't have a lot of crew. But who knows, maybe changing designs and an auto-greasing machine could be something to think about.
