Dead cats to fuel cars in the near future?!

[CyberPitz]

Get your flux capacitor ready!

A German inventor has come up with the technology that will power your car on fuel derived from dead cats.

Christian Koch, 55, has angered animal rights people with his alternative fuel which is made from a secret recipe of garbage, mashed-up moggies, and other ingredients.

He said that his normal diesel-powered car has clocked 170,000 kilometres (106,000 miles) on pussy power without any major catastrophe.

His company "Alphakat GmbH", says his patented "KDV 500" machine can produce "bio-diesel" fuel at about 23 euro cents (30 cents) a litre, which is about one-fifth the price at petrol stations now.

It takes 20 dead cats added to the mix to produce enough fuel to fill up a 50-litre (11 gallon) tank. We're just one step closer to Mr. Fusion, the same technology used in the movie "Back to the Future".

But Koch, 55, said there was no truth to stories published in Bild newspaper on Tuesday and...

LOL at first I thought But Koch was his name. ahaha I laughed so hard ah well... yeah i know it's not that funny..

On topic.. I didn't believe it anyway, because there's no real reason why it should be a cat :/ and why would it have to be dead?

It's not. I read it in the newspaper (het belang van Limburg) a couple of weeks ago + it was on the radio (Studio Brussel).

As I said, why do they need to be dead?:rolling:

This actually looks pretty cool.

According to the CNN article refuting the 50 liters per 20 dead cats story he can make this stuff out of textiles, plastics, paper, organic matter, basically all household rubbish (apart from metal).

Now that is pretty cool. Imagine having a big tank (with 'Mr. Fusion' on the side ) that you could dump all your rubbish into and have it converted into bio-diesel. Nice.
