But then again

If we took all the bleep pots..ie sir diamond, Gramps, Roachie,willem, truckster, to name just a few...on this site and stuck em in the desert (so their pee wont stink us city folk out) we would have enough electricity to power up SA for a year thus avoiding my office getting to hot cos the interconnector failed from VIC and NSW during the hot weather

the little battery packs in aircraft lifejackets use salt water, or urine as the activating electrolite, to power the shoulder light.

were sitting around a campfire one time last year and came up with a theory..

Put a steam fired generator on the campfire, drink beer, urinate in boiler to keep it producing steam, run fridge off generator to keep beer cold to drink to produce urine to fill the boiler

Brillant!!

I could do that, the "drink beer" part, only if I had to, and I would have to.
