Cattle, the Research Catalyst (Wired News)

RSS and VHP and other Hindu-focussed organizations are funding research into cows and their benefits. They are also making ludicrous claims about the efficacy of cow dung and cow urine.

Some examples of this 'research':
- cow dung and spread over walls and roofs can block nuclear radiation
- cows' urine can cure cancer, renal failure, arthritis and a lot of other ailments
- cow slaughter causes exceptional seismic activity i.e. earthquakes

Wow.
