4. Neither

He will be treated the same as all the other people who claim to be able to violate the laws of physics.

6. Old news - it doesn't run on water alone

It requires water and electricity to run. They don't even make a secret of that.

8. Well I hope it's a hoax otherwise...

Canada should be worried. I wouldn't put it past the those nutburgers in the White House to invade us to get our water.

9. If he is claiming that he can burn water in an engine

and get 100 miles on four ounces, he is a fraud.

10. He claims he can make hydrogen and oxygen out of water and electricity

which isn't exactly new, and have a car run on it, which isn't new either.

The new thing is that his electrolysis process is more efficient then other systems, also new is that he uses both the hydrogen and the oxygen to create energy. Hydrogen is very flammable, adding oxygen will make it burn/explode even better.

12. Yes, but electrolysis takes power

and I am willing to bet the rent money that more power goes into the system than comes out of it.

15. Yes, it takes electricity

He makes no secret of that.
And yes it uses more energy than it produces.
Otoh the electricity could be produced be renewable sources (wind, water, solar), and it does provide a alternative fuel, which might come in handy now that we're sort of running out of oil.

16. with claims like these, its safe to assume the "unless" part first

Edited on Wed Jun-07-06 02:18 PM by enki23

you'll have better luck looking for cold fusion, or zero point energy, or the tooth fairy.
