Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
Japanease scientists have discovered algae that produce oil. The Algae, called Botryococcus braunii, which given enough carbon dioxide and light excretes oil which floats to the surface in test tube experiments. The oil can then be converted into plastics and fuel using the same techniques as for crude oil.
The Japanese government is investing in further research, as currently although oil yield is high versus other crops such as rapeseed it would require a field of algae the size or Yorkshire to provide sufficient fuel for Japan!! |

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
Stott Hall Farm which is located between the east and west bound carriageways of the m62 on saddleworth moor is known to have existed as far back as the 18th century. The road forks around the farm for engineering reasons owing to the surrounding area's geology, though a local myth persists that the road had to be split because the owners refused to sell the land during its construction. This is not the case since the owners could have been obliged to sell via a compulsory purchase order. Due to its remoteness in the Pennines, the farm is often nicknamed as "the Little House on the Prairie", and is often used as an unofficial service station for stranded motorists...
