He's talkin' oiled birds now. Here's a hot topic for him...EROEI...energy returned on energy invested.... p.s. is it on topic to ask about the EROEI of burning oil-soaked pelicans? [new] sunnnv on June 8, 2010 - 2:13am I dunno, have to study if the pelicans should be dried out or not: If wet, all the oil is still there, but the water takes away from the heating value. If dry, many of the petroleum volatiles have evaporated, reducing the heating value, but one doesn't have to evaporate all the water. Now watch, burning pelicans for fuel will become as sticky a story as the steam railroad in Egypt burning commoner's mummies for fuel, with the internet to spread it instead of just Mark Twain. straightdope.com. == Rachel saved oil by flying to SF instead of going to Ark with Schultz.
