Ladies and Gentlemen Allow Me to Introduce the Cat Car 614
Kelmar writes "CNN is running a story about how a German inventor has found a way to power a car using dead cats. Yes you read that right. According to the inventor he can produce the biodiesel fuel at the cost of about $0.30 (US) per liter. Needless to say many animal rights activists are upset by this development, and some are saying that it is illegal to use animals for this purpose in Germany."

Mind you, the Brits had a car called a Morris Minor. It's nickname was the "moggie". Is this the same thing?

I know I'll get modded down for this, it was a joke. But then again some people have had their sense of humour surgically removed.

Oh I don't know. I've found them quite useful for my quantum mechanics experiments. What I do is I leave the cat in a box for a week and see if it's dead or alive when I take it out. Sure all 1000 experiments have resulted in death for the cat, but I'm not convinced that this isn't a statistical anomaly. I'll kill another 1000 cats if I have to!

animal rights activists shush, this process apparently involves dead animals, so if they're dead, what will you be doing about it? Will the dead animals benefit from your actions?
In any case, many dead animals end up processed for animal food anyway.

Petrol Direct [petroldirect.com] are the answer to the UK's rising fuel prices - cheap fuel by post, with innovative biofuel products too.
Check out Petrel(TM) [petroldirect.com] a fuel source made from a mixture of seabird guano, combined with the rendered down, fermented and then distilled corpses of a variety of common gulls, albatrosses and terns.
And "Vin Diesel" - Made from the foulest and most undrinkable European wines
Marvellous.

Perhaps the mark II will have 'fuel scoops' fitted on the front. And if this invention is adapted for larger diesel engines as used in railway locomotives, the cow-catcher could take on a slightly different purpose.
