Less than an hour later, in one of my adult English classes, someone asked about the meaning of biofuel, and another student said, "You know, like in the movie Back to the Future," which confused everyone. Apparently he had misremembered the DeLoreans in that film running on biofuel.
Back to the Future was released in America in 1985. It's not something people talk about all the time in Taiwan in 2026.

Ah, but the Delorean in Back to the Future II did indeed run on biofuel (about the 35 second mark in the link below):

This is the second time William has mentioned "auto parts" en passant, and this post devolves upon a fictional automobile. Could the student who "confused everyone" possibly have been thinking of Back to the Future II where Doc temporarily ran the car on household garbage, including beer and banana peels? Isn't that rather similar to biofuel?
Now, obviously the sync here is that two persons in a relatively short span of time referenced "Back to the Future" in a context where it is exceeding rare for anyone ever to mention it at all; but are we to understand further that, in doing so, they were, so to speak, going "back to the future"-- or, better yet, "forth to the past"?
William,
From a paranormal perspective,
maybe the sync was given as a recurring event
( close in time i.e a matter of hours ) to
get your attention which obviously is exactly
what happened.
Perhaps having very little to do with the actual movie.
Fuel is something burned to provide heat or power.
The ability to see the future, especially as it connects
to the past is very powerful indeed.
