First, a blurb from the news:
A Mind of Its Own - Columbia professor Dr. Michael Gershon definitily demonstrated our intestines autonomy when he performed a classic experiment on a guinea pig colon. After surgically removing the colon from the guinea pig, he showed how a pellet placed at one end caused coordinated colonic contractions that quickly resulted in expulsion of the pellet from the other end.
I don't know how many of you just had the same thought I did: this is AWESOME! We can totally manufacture semi-automatic, feces firing weapons from colons! Your enemies will run in terror as you lift your poo pistol and start pelting them with round after round of offal.
I would certainly run in terror from that pistol...
