S*, that's interesting! Thanks for posting.

The dems really could lead the way in getting us out of a tight energy crisis.

"A human migration fueled by dung?"

I have heard hippies say:
"You gotta get your shiite together,
before you can take it on the road."

Who knew, that they knew?

What's so new about this? Democrats have been drawn to bullsh** for years.

The title made me think that this was a story of brainless Rat women being attracted to Hitlery book signings.

There's very little wood on the northern plains of the US. Natives used to burn buffalo dung.

This is standard practice in Mongolia, as well.

Nothing like a cup of fermented mare's milk while warming up by nice cowsh*t fire.

This is old news.

Everyone knows that Mousie Dung caused massive relocation of people in China.

I've read speculation that there was a Northern Forest there until they burned it too.

As I understand it, the Native Americans used to set fire to the prairie every spring to encourage growth of new grass to attact the buffalo. Any tree seedlings would be destroyed by the fire.

Chief: I have bad news and good news.

Tribe: What's the bad news?

Chief: We're out of food and we have to eat buffalo dung all winter.

Tribe: What's the good news?

Chief: We've sufficient buffalo dung for the entire winter.

I'll give it about five years from now & then if you make a true statement like this, you'll be going to jail.

No, they usually use camel's milk for cheese.

Ferment mare's milk aka airag is the primary form of alcohol in the boonies. If the sun is up, dip your ring finger in the glass and flick some up into the air as an offering to the sky. Mongols don't seem to think the sky is present at night. It isn't polite to refuse airag which tastes like watery vodka with an aftertaste of horse.

mmmmmm mmmm good.
