it's obviously fake.
two guys. no spectators. no decent action shots.

like those guys who looked all earnest and ran so fast they could stay on top of the water.

puhlease! the energy needed to fire up the LEDs will far outstrip any energy from biofuels several energy conversions down the line. Just run the vehicle on the electricity used to light the LEDs. Everyone who's taken 9th grade science should remember the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics. 1st law = energy cannot be "created." it must be derived. 2nd law = energy conversion necessitates energy loss (entropy happens).

A deeper investigation will show that during the carefully selected time period more people moved to Texas because of rising oil prices and and a temporary expansion in energy related industries.

There are probably better ways to measure the net benefits of various state tax/benefit systems.

This smells like a libertarian-republican spin job.

the second law of thermodynamics says that this fuel will come at a very high cost in terms of money and energy input. it might work in a pinch in a nuclear powered navy ship.

It's as bad or worse in the U.S., as anyone knows who has flown over the Pacific Northwest:

Back in the early 1990s, some scientists compared aerial photos of Rondonia, Brazil with the Mt Hood National Forest in Oregon, and the result: Brazil looked downright verdant by comparison. The Mt Hood NF was chopped to bits.

It's neat to me. And it's not just advertising. This is advertising. "Here's my wife's Etsy site: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6113100 . You should buy stuff here for holiday gifts."

Here is a link to another travesty.

This shows some clearcuts in southern Oregon where the timber industry left little skinny green strips between large clearcuts, presumably in order to get around the legal limit on the size of clearcuts. This kind of liquidation probably took place before the absentee landowner sold out and left town. "Cut and run" is what they call it.

Fish usually swim pointed upstream even when they are moving downstream, so my fish science friend tells me that this is most likely a picture of fish falling out of the pipe instead of jumping into it. Sorry.

In 1938 archaeologist Luther Cressman (from the University of Oregon) excavated at Fort Rock Cave, located in a small volcanic butte approximately half a mile west of the Fort Rock volcanic crater in central Oregon. The Fort Rock Basin is the most northwesterly sub-basin of the Great Basin, Western North America's vast intermontane desert.
