Default I gotta admit... I'm intrigued

Take a look at this with a somewhat open mind and tell me what you think.

$50 for a 90 page guide on how to build and install....

Another $60 in parts and stuff from the auto part/hardware store.

???????? Any thoughts or input? I know it seems like snake oil or something like that, but what if it actually does work?

.Snake oil, Pure and simple!

It doesn't work.

If it did why would a car company not be using it already.

This will definitely work. It's designed to remove money from people's wallets and it works perfectly.

The guys on Mythbusters did a segment on something like this and the result wasn't too surprising, "busted".

Don't be ridiculous. Everybody knows you can't run your car on water unless you add fuel tablets.

Well you obviously didn't read this part:

"Some industry insiders say its just a matter of time before this water-burning technology will be standard in new automobiles. One expert estimates most cars will be using this technology by 2012, but until the auto manufacturers catch up, you can use this technology for yourself today at a very reasonable set-up cost."

What pisses me off is tat all the knowledge you need to know this is pure crap is taught in 7th grade science, and reinforced in high school "Chem-Phys" (Or whatever your school called the intro science class).

All you have to do is figure out the right chemical reaction to separate H2 from H2O and then you have Hydrogen fuel. Or you can get some from the sun, just remember to go at night.

There are lots of ways to do his.

They all take the same amount of energy (or more) than you get out.

Mother Nature is a B!tch!
