Snappy Answers for Stupid Hippies

Here’s the intro to my favourite article on Valleywag today:

Biodiesel. Hemp. Local sustainable farms. Hippie tech is infuriating. You know in your engineer’s heart it won’t work, but because it’s outside your field of study you lack the handy stats to rebut the moonbat ideas evangelized by modern-day hippies and their shiny shiny cousins, the ravers. Before Burning Man starts up again in earnest, I’ve prepared canned comebacks and bookmarkable URLs from hippie-approved sources like Wikipedia and GreenBiz.
