Nicely done, George!

On the subject of energy, do you recall a couple years ago
we discussed  a technology being employed by a major poultry
firm (Butterball?  Tyson?) to turn the guts and carcasses
into oil plus some harmless organic waste.  It sounded
plausible.  Wonder what ever happened to that.  Was it a
hoax after all?
