OK, so it might be right up there with cold fusion and other technological flimflams . . . but it might not.

In this Discover magazine article, scientists (and more importantly, businessmen) believe they can turn just about anything -- waste from poultry processing plants, manure, plastic bottles, old computers, garbage, you name it -- into fuel oil, and do it cheaply. Read the article and decide for yourself.

Update: The article discusses a full-scale plant in Carthage which was to be running by the end of April. A spokesman for the company now says "The Carthage plant will be fully operational later this spring, by end of June we hope."

I can only hope!

Those cold fusion guys tricked Discover magazine, too. :)

But I'd *really* love to see it work out.

Yup... be they true or not, the convoluted twists and turns are a hoot!
