Oil & Natural Gas from ANYTHING
PopSci's Best of What's New 2007
This is amazing. Genius. Brilliant. The best example of what inventors are for. It produces almost 20 times the energy it requires, and can be used to recycle/eliminate much of our worst waste products - used tires, etc.
We need to build these. Lots of them.

Genius Loci: the Spirits of Place
the Spirits of Place

I fervently dream of someday living in a home with just such a place (or perhaps 2 or 3...) about its grounds, perhaps even integrated into the house itself.
