I saw this and had to post it. They're calling it Pee Power...apparently scientists at Ohio University have figured out how to create hydrogen gas from urine. They then convert the hydrogen gas into energy. The best quote from the article came from Gerardine Botte who is developing the technology. "One cow can provide enough energy to supply hot water for 19 houses". Not only a food source, but now an energy source as well...the cow is a magnificent beast. According to the story, there could be fuel cells using this technology in as little as 6 months.
I think it's kinda cool...in a gross sort of way.

That is REALLY cool. I'm just trying to picture how they're collecting the pee from the cows; because collecting pee from cows would be quite an endeavor. (I should know.)
