Soylent Green Redux

300 oilmen at the GO-EXPO in Calgary, Canada witnessed an unusual presentation about turning human flesh into fuel by 'representatives of Exxon and the National Petroleum Council'.

The two 'representatives' turned out to be pranksters from the civil disobedience group The Yes Men.

. . .

The fake speech, delivered by 'Shepard Wolff' (aka Andy Bichlbaum of the Yes Men), unveiled a new Exxon oil product called Vivoleum.

'We need something like whales, but infinitely more abundant', said 'Mr Wolff' as he showed 3-D animations of human flesh being rendered into the fuel.

The rest is here.
