Three of these four things really happened, just recently. Are you cynical
enough to figure out the made-up story? (a) A British couple who hadn't been
able to break their two-pack-a-day cigarette habit gave it up when their pet
parrot developed a respiratory illness. (b) A leading British museum announced
an experiment to cover a substantial portion of its utility expenses by
converting visitors' excrement from museum rest rooms into electricity. (c) A
local Islamic extremist organization in France, with ties to al-Qaeda, filed
several lawsuits against the city of Paris for what it called "discriminatory
tax harassment." (d) Meteorological officials in one Chinese province accused
their counterparts in another province of "stealing" "their" clouds, in order
to seed them for rain.
