[Land-speed] Soy based plastic?

Mark -- Here's an interesting story of Mt Hooker North Face climbs:

and some further comments about Jim Dockery:

And I thought we landspeed racing people were the sick ones........
I got a bit of a laugh about the innovative use of rocks (when all else 
fails)
We gotta hear your side of the winter sojourn story.  Dockery doesn't seem 
to want to say much about it.
