......word "molten" that first caught my eye, asking the obvious question "from whence comes the heat" to make it molten. It got only better with "carbon capture" (an old favorite), "emission of gaseous tar", "impure hydrogen", "carbon monoxide", "poisoned catalysts", and "carcinogens". What's not to like ? Your mention of Nazi Germany and apartheid South Africa was a tiny bit gratuitous but still pretty funny.
