Scientists accidentally turn Carbon Dioxide into Alcohol

[Bribie G]

Finally some useful research.

Proof that science is 30% more effective when the word "nano-" is used multiple times.

Really interesting breakthrough, though.
It's amazing the number of important discoveries that are accidentally stumbled across!

One minor point: what concentration of co2 was dissolved in the water, and how cost effective is it to obtain that? Ie: for energy production

Otoh, it makes all those stills our distilling brothers use a little redundant. Just drop one of those catalyst plates in water you've run co2 through for a bit, and bob's your uncle, 60% ethanol in water!

Can see it now.....soda water sales reach an all time high as everyone tries to make alcohol

Build a large plate and drop it into Campbelltown Loch in an inaccessible location.

And the other 70% belongs to pseudoscience.
Used in conjunction 'quantum', is basically how Depak Chopra built his fortune.

Saturday afternoon. A plane flys over my house at high altitude when I was outside.
Sunday morning I wake up with a dry mouth, headache and feeling slightly nauseous.
I'm sure that was just a 'coincidence'.

You forgot to insert:

Saturday night, I calm my nerves with 1/2 keg of IIPA and 1/2 keg of RIS.

I had that same problem. I have no doubt at all that it was the same plane

My kegerator is made from orgonite, so I'm fine.

I lit a Winfield Red while waiting for a bus, but it arrived a minute later so I had to stub it out.
Buses prevent lung cancer.

And a lit cigarette creates the bus.
