Another reason to love urine!

[furie]

Urine-powered cars, homes and personal electronic devices could be available in six months with new technology developed by scientists from Ohio University.

Using a nickel-based electrode, the scientists can create large amounts of cheap hydrogen from urine that could be burned or used in fuel cells. "One cow can provide enough energy to supply hot water for 19 houses," said Gerardine Botte, a professor at Ohio University developing the technology. "Soldiers in the field could carry their own fuel." (http://current.com/1do7e4c)

I expect a spike in the price of urine in the next six months. Luckily I've been storing mine in jars for years.

I filled an empty 40oz OE bottle in one piss. Put the cap back on, looked just like the way I bought it. Love piss.

Wouldn't it be ironic is homeless urine was somehow more valuable because of all the blood and alcohol in it?
