Bovine Blaze

Some of you may have seen this report wherein we find that there is a huge pile of cow poop flaming… and it won’t go out. I don’t find this particularly problematic because

  • The poop is not on fire inside the cows
  • I’ve watched Envy and realize it could be a lot worse.
  • The fire is so far away from me I don’t notice it
  • People have been cooking food over fecal fires for a long time. Here’s an example from the Bible. Just as long as the meat gets cooked to FDA regulations.

Also, if cows are responsible for a large amount of methane then we should harness this and then we’d be cooking with gas.
