Exxon presented a plan to a gathering of oil industry big wigs to produce "Vivoleum" as a way to increase oil supplies. Vivoleum is made "from the victims of climate change" - yes, from dead people.

The crowd of oil industry people listened intently, and did not raise any objections. Many had recieved candles that we supposedly made out of this new oil product, and lit them up and smiled to see the warm glow they put off.

That part was true, but in fact the "Vivoleum" presentation was a gag put on by some very very clever protesters who had crashed the oil industry meeting to stage this cynical protest. But the oil people listened!! They took it seriously!!!

Also somewhat shocking to me was the fact that my own brother was likely at that meeting, as he is a major player [CEO of a large energy corporation].
