Eh. Why not wind-up springs or rubber bands? Or, better yet, some

for 'horsepower.'


Nope, there are plenty of folks out there bitching about the carbon
footprint of livestock.


Which, I guess, is the point. No matter what you do, those guys will
complain. So why bother to do anything at all to address their
complaints?
