For years, a hot button topic has been how do we find a viable, renewable, clean energy source that will alleviate our dependence on foreign oil? Solar, wind, and ethanol alternatives among others have all been proposed to, if not replace, at least supplement our insatiable thirst for oil and the energy created by it. All have met with limited success. Well, I think I may have the solution. Let's harness all the energy created by THE BULL SHIT that flows so readily from the mouths of people in general and politicians in particular and use IT as a source for energy. There seems to be such a steady supply of it that, as long as there are human beings, there will be plenty of bull shit to go around.
We know that one of the by-products of excrement (i.e. bull shit) is methane. All you have to do is drive by a cow pasture and take a whiff to know it exists. I suspect that, on any given day, walking by The Capitol with Congress in session will produce a similar olfactory sensation. Although politicians seem to be the best source, it's not limited to the political spectrum by any means. Ordinary people spew plenty of bull shit on a regular basis. And since there are nearly 7 billion human beings on the planet, think of the limitless potential!!
The methane created by this endlessly renewable source can then be burned to generate heat. Heat can be used to boil water to create steam. Steam can power generators which, in turn, can create electricity. All we need do now is find a convenient way to harness the bull shit which flows from our mouths with such consistent regularity. Perhaps we can create depots or filling stations where people can stop in and deposit their share of bull shit which will then be stored before it can be converted into pure, clean energy.
Clean, safe, renewable: Bull Shit, energy for the future!
