Physics, not because its geeky and we are on /. Because, even though you legally have the right of way, while in the crosswalk, doesn't mean you will be able to sue me after my 1.5 ton car runs over your ass. Right of way is no excuse for ignorance. As well as, just because I am 20 yards down the road from you (again in my 1.5 ton car), I am doing 40 mph, so you pulling out in front of me is going to get you hit! (See Newton)

The only issue with using "native plants" is because of the reason they are using goats in the first place, keeping a place "clear of fire hazards." Native plants still produce a fire hazards thus resulting again in a need for some sort of 'mowing method'. Rocks and/or dirt would accomplish their goal and be 'environmentally friendly' however ugly.

Cutting Steel With Flaming Bacon Weapons 73

Ed Pegg writes "Theo Gray demonstrates the Bacon Lance, a flaming meatsword that can cut through steel. Yes, with some ordinary bacon, and some pure oxygen, it's possible to cut through security doors. Form the article, 'I recently committed myself to the goal, before the weekend was out, of creating a device entirely from bacon and using it to cut a steel pan in half. My initial attempts were failures, but I knew success was within reach when I was able to ignite and melt the pan using seven beef sticks and a cucumber.' This comes out right after his profusely illustrated book of science experiments, Mad Science."
