Ladies and Gentlemen Allow Me to Introduce the Cat Car

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."

    bin Laden family members and other Saudi nationals were flown out of the country after 9/11 on flights provided by the FBI. That is an irrefutable fact, and there have never been any answers from the government about those flights.

    bin Laden an outcast? didn't he show up at a wedding a few years ago? "Sheikh Ahmad said he and his mother last saw bin Laden at the January 2001 wedding of one of Osama's sons in Afghanistan." Granted, Osama's step-brother isn't the most reliable source, but why would his family travel from Saudi Arabia to Afghanistan to attend his son's wedding if he was an 'outcast'?

    I agree that Moore goes a bit too extreme from time to time, but there's something with this issue that remains to be answered.
