Start-Up Genetically Modifies a Better Biofuel Bug
Al writes "A tiny cellulose-eating bacterium found a few years ago in the Chesapeake Bay has been genetically modified to help it break down cellulose and convert the results into the sugars needed to make ethanol. Scientists analyzed the organism's genome in 2003 and found that it possessed a combination of enzymes that simultaneously break down the tough cell walls in dead plants and convert the remaining cellulose into sugars. Recently, Zymetis completed its first successful commercial-scale trial using the bug. The company ran the modified microbe through a series of tests in large fermenters and found that it could convert one ton of cellulosic plant fiber into sugar in 72 hours. The microbe's main advantage is its ability to naturally combine two major steps in the ethanol process, which the company says could considerably slash the high costs of producing ethanol from cellulosic biomass like switchgrass, wood chips, and paper pulp. The piece includes a video of the company's CEO discussing the project."
So can they use their genetics to give me a bigger penis? I want it as big as a niggerdick!
I want to believe that this is a work of fiction ... but those 9 steps are far too specific. What's with the racist language anyway? "Nigger do-rag"? That's not funny.

Middle Eastern countries attacking Israel is a possibility (they'd think it's "now or never"), but terrorists are a different story. They don't commit acts of terror because they're black hat-wearing moustache-twirlers. They want more advanced countries to get the hell out of their country's affairs. The only reason rich countries (U.S. etc.) are still in the middle east is to get at their oil. No money in oil = waste of money to stay in the middle east. Terrorists will still hate Israel though, and no rich countries caring about the middle east = Israel being screwed.
As an aside, biofuel relies on a large amount of water, and fresh water is hard to come by in the middle east. Chances are they'll still use their own oil. Which means controlling the oil = controlling the middle east. Expect lots of infighting when that happens, and embargoes on foreign biofuel. Will the infighting prevent the coordinated destruction of Israel? Let's hope so, or else they're likely to break out their nukes.
