At the moment the starry-eyed idealists are working on a hate campain against New Year rockets, but if this story gets known...Will the Greens go after Oktoberfest?
(pardon my German: Werden die Grunen Oktoberfest verfolgen?)

They should be able to capture that methane and use it to power their Frankfurter and Hamburger cookers,
the Finns have got the right idea
Poo power: Horse manure from World Cup powers Helsinki homes
Horse power has a different meaning at the Helsinki International Horse Show as the electricity needs for the FEI World Cup Jumping qualifiers comes entirely from horse manure.

Telling Whiskey from Whisky
The evaporation of a drop of American whiskey leaves a characteristic web-like pattern that isn’t observed in Scotch whisky and other distillates.

Once more optics and chemistry displace human judgment. No longer can one make the excuse that "I drink so much because I'm a taster and the industry needs my expertise". Pretty soon, these folks will be able to expose the "wine snobs" as charlatans. Then where will we be?

When I was growing up, my unrepentant temperance supporting great aunt would advise:
"Artificial Tongues that touch Seagrams will never touch mine!"
Still musing philosophically in response to what Frank said above - I can imagine such a machine that could analyse and distinguish all the chemical components making up the tastes of different whiskies. And you could teach it to recognise the kinds you like best. So it could even taste a sample of whisky and say, for example, 'This is a 20 year old Laphraoig, Sir, I think you would like it.' But what I don't think any machine could ever truthfully say would be "This is a 20 year old Laphraoig, I like it myself.'
