"Green" fuel cell sports car (from BBC news)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7265267.stm
"the seats are built from wood to keep the weight down"
WTF!
Of course, half a ton of green oak is perfect for the lightweight sports car.
Infact I don't know why they stop making F1 cars out of carbon and kevlar and start using mahogany 
Still, nice seats!!!
Even if they do appear to be made from chocolate!!

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Yeah, they should make them out of carbon fibre, cause it's got a better carbon footprint than wood init?
