Gas - 10 Cents per GALLON - YES!!!

[newman]

Yes, you can run your car on poop!

This gas is methane, a pure, clean, high powered gas which every country has in great abundance and is all but inexhaustible. Methane can be obtained from 'digesting' chicken and pig manure in a 'digester' adapted from a discarded hot water tank, and which will run your car with no other modification than to get the methane to the engine. Indeed, the car is started on gasoline, and once running, is switched over to methane.

Since methane is a gas, it is 'dry' - as opposed to fluid gasoline - and therefore does not dilute the engine oil. Consequently, your car runs much, much cleaner, and the engine oil lasts almost 'forever'. Methane also has a combustion of 97% to 98% - compared to the 27% combustion of gasoline, with the rest going out the exhaust in the form of carbon and pollution. Consequently, there is hardly any pollution from methane fuel, and the exhaust consists of a bit of water, and a bit of carbon dioxide.

Do It Yourself.
 You can go ahead and do it, if you like. A 'digester' or two from old hot water tanks in the garage (each yields about 62 gallons of methane from one load of manure and straw), a source of chicken and/or pig manure (other manures, including human manure work as well), some straw (which can be obtained from sheared weeds) for carbon (about 75% - 25% ratio), some simple "off the shelf" items to drain the methane from the 'digester' and fill a pressure bottle, and the hook-up of the methane bottle to the carburator of your car. Should come to no more than a one time expenditure of about $300.00 these days, and then your only cost, if any, is the manure of choice. [see ORIGINAL ARTICLE]

Thousands of people have done this. There are 400.000 methane burning cars in Italy, and in one town in Italy (I forgot which), all the taxis run on methane, on a commercially produced fuel called Metano.

Ready Built.
 Or, you can buy a Volvo car, or truck, which has been specifically built to run on both methane and gasoline. This is a mature technology and Volvo is now (2005) celebrating its 10th year of building "Bi-Fuel" cars, and has built and sold over 12.000 cars (also trucks and buses) which run on both methane and gasoline. [see original VOLVO press release].

Methane Sources.
 Fortunately for us, and as it happens, North Carolina, a major producer of hogs, has a huge manure problem - to the tune of 9.5 million tons of manure from 10 million swine - both in terms of what can only be described as an all pervasive "stink" from the manure lagoons, plus a severe pollution problem of ground water from those manure lagoons [ see THE BIG STINK in these pages].

lol, newman.

[newman]

lol, newman.

Don't laugh, it's for real.

BTW,

Imagine the methane Rosie O'Donnell could produce when hitting the can after she's been to the eat-all-you-want BBQ buffet! She could power her own large SUV!!

Imagine congressman Ackerman! He could power a semi-trailer after he's raided the cold cuts at one fund-raiser.

This sounds really real and convincing.

I'm trying not to laugh.
