Cow Pee Cola?

It doesn't sound very appetizing.  But the Cow Protection Department of the Rashtriya Sawyamseval Sangh wants to make a cola from cow urine, claiming that the soda would taste good, be healthy and could cure diseases, even cancer. 

The drink is undergoing lab testing in Lucknow and the group hopes to have it on the market by the end of the year.

Dr. Donald Hensrud, chairman of the Division of Preventive Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, remains skeptical of its supposed health benefits.



"I think I'm perfectly comfortable in saying that I'm aware of no data that cow's urine-- or any other species' urine-- holds any promise in treating or preventing cancer."

Well, urine is not necessarily going to hurt you unless the provider of said urine has a contagious infection. It's personally not my thing, human or otherwise, but if there is a market for it, why not sell it?

There was a great atmospheric feel to those pirate/sea creature effects in the movie. Everything exuded 'wetness' and 'crusctacian-ness'(sic?). Brilliant special effects. I hope they win an Oscar.

Feel free to keep your opinions to yourself, "Unamused". Some of us have to spend time away from the computer, on things called "jobs"...*rolls eyes*

I've always been impressed with ILM's capacity to make the unreal seem real. They just keep getting better!

lol @ TwoDragons

I'll voice my opinion when I feel it's relevant, thank you very much :). I keep an eye on a handful of entertaining blogs and feeds every night before bed, and usually Neatorama delivers stuff that isn't old (or at least stuff that just popped up the same day on a number of places).

So yeah, I'll critique occasionally when someone is posting reruns from last week! Thanks for your waste of time TwoDragons, get bent ;)

"437 subscriptions" from my feed reader ^g^

Soo... Why didn't you post that same comment when I echoed some news from the last summer with that $30,000 pez candy dispenser? :(

From now and forth I must keep an eye in the dates of the news. I'll think twice before posting about a 2000 year old analog computer because it's old... About a cat on lsd because it offences your kiddy eyes... About myths and rumours because you do belive the truth is out there...

I remember someone got amused too because I posted an image of a Super Mario Nutcraker.

I wonder if... well... Could you just watch the Neatorama items because they're interesting and piss off reading the BBC news rss?
