You have to actually kill and dry them out first, so my basement is full of them hanging from the rafters, but you'd be surprised how much energy is packaged in those little things. I usually pitchfork a load into the truck bed first thing in the morning to last all day. A good load stuffed into the boiler will last nearly an hour at a time, but it's totally worth it. Sure, they smoke like the dickens, and the smell of a burning tabby is just aweful, but nobody tailgates me anymore! The best part is that you get to spend your day driving around looking to run down more kittens; it's like the best video game, but for real! Awesome.
PS, global warming is BS; get real.
how do you know global warming is bs? I assume you head your own laboratory and did your own studies and computer analysis

on the other hand, the above poster is correct. too much focus is on passenger cars. meanwhile, commercial trucks, trains, ships, and airplanes contribute a big chunk of pollution and greenhouse gases but no one is doing anything to make them any greener or reduce their carbon footprint. and sports cars and supercars form such a small niche that their carbon footprint is negligible. it has become all about PR stunt and propaganda for car companies to brag about how much "green" technology they can show off in the autoshows.

I'm not claiming to say that humans are the cause for global warming or that we (can/will) have any impact at all -- but multiple reputable scientific communities have come out with numbers showing a rise in global temperatures that is abnormal based on what we know at this time.

Does this mean they are right? No. That's the nature of science -- it changes and is fully allowed to be wrong. Science isn't truth, it's trying to find the truth.

Likewise, saying something like "global warming is bs" or anything along those lines isn't scientific at all. It's just making a blanket assumption.

I personally think that the warming of our atmosphere is natural and that we have very little if any impact on it. I also think the mad rush of green energy is mostly wasted -- though I welcome the advancement it brings to society.

I never said it was bs...I just asked how you know it is not bs...and you replied science...which according to your philosophy makes absolutely no sense...there are scientists "proving" both sides...So we will never know really
