content: Just imagine the pile of shit coming out of 450k hamsters. One is bad enough. All they do is sleep, go round on a wheel, escape and poop.

content: Actually, it is a MILLION hamsters pooping.Which allegedly could generate 450 kW.Let's do an engineering analysis. We are talking 450 watts per hamster, or roughly 0.6HP per pet. Talking mechanical and electrical losses into account, we are talking 3/4HP hamsters. That would be a large dog-sized hamster!

content: Now where did they get the free food to feed the hamsters?And the free transportation for the food to the facility?And the free materials and labor to build and maintain the million cages and generating wheels?And even hamsters cant run 24/7, so you probably need to feed at least 8 million hamsters and organize shifts to keep things moving.There will be so many humans involved that they'll form a labor union to negotiate better benefits while they're working for free.Never mind what the animal rights activists are going to want...
