Lotus to develop OMNIVORE Research Engine
2008-08-12 15:26:00 We don't see see the point of using bio fuel as an alternative source of fuel for combustion engines. It's become clear that ethanol production, for example, is taking resources away from food production and is in fact driving food costs up. Given serious over-population issues and increasing birth rates worldwide driven by ignorance and oppressive religions and/or politics, the last thing the world needs is increased food costs.

2007-11-24 22:04:00 If Fugazi, Helmet, Quicksand, Orange 9mm and Handsome had gotten together to play a show and did nothing but jam out on Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd covers, the recording might have come out something like Robots and Empire’s ‘Omnivore’. However, do not make the assumption that these guys sound like anything one ...
Must Read: Omnivore?s Dilemma
2007-09-29 07:38:00 I never liked writing book reports as a kid, and I don’t enjoy them much more now. But the Omnivore’s Dilemma by Michael Pollan has changed the way I think about eating, and likely changed my eating habits for life.
