Scientists have found bugs that poop "crude" oil.

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article4133668.ece

'"Our plan is to have a demonstration-scale plant operational by 2010 and, in parallel, we`ll be working on the design and construction of a commercial-scale facility to open in 2011," says Mr Pal, adding that if LS9 used Brazilian sugar cane as its feedstock, its fuel would probably cost about $50 a barrel.'

Belize has the required acerage and capability of supplying the sugar cane... why not be the oil-poop capital of the world???

Be careful or we'll have Bush looking for weapons of mass destruction the Mennonites are hiding.

Amazing idea, but that's a lot of "pooper bugs"! Do I hear objections from those against genetic engineering?

In the US, the Mexicans supposedly do the jobs Americans won't do. In Belize wouldn't that be Guatemalans?
