i was shown a program about this when i was in primary school--way back when the Ford Cortina Mrk 1 was the test car being used (lol that'll date me)....they split water into hyrdogen and oxygen -burn it -then the exhaust gases re-combine and water comes out the exhaust pipe--summat like that-

was obviously far too freaky to be put into major use lol---

oil companys with an eye on short term profits not long term adaption--
the first oil company that fully adapts to a new technology regarding the fuel will be the one that claims the prize--big risk tho--

Interesting. I liked the idea of a Hummer running on water...

If it works, it'll be the collapse of tax revenues for governments around the world, but will herald the departure of our dependency on (in my opinion) primitive and expensive fossil fuels.

Fact.

It's called baptized Gasoline, you add water to the gas like marble powder is added to cocaine to sell less for more.

Fossil fuel is running out in less than 50 years it will be all gone, according to the latest info. I don't know if that is true but one thing for certain it's not going to be around for ever. The time of talking is over lets see some real hard results from these experts.

Now there will be ridiculously high taxes on water!

No, just another case of fraud and/or incorrect reporting. Raising false expectations.

see-ing as the car i saw on a science program at school way back then --was a 100% going concern--with at least the same power to weight ratio as a normal car (of the time) the one thing that perhaps really freaked the oil compnays governments out was the fact that you could take what came out of the exhaust pipe and put it straight back inot the fuel tank lol!!!!---they probaly found the scientist took him out and shot him--they allmost certainly own the copy-right

i'm allso still waiting to hear what happened to the combined jet/rocket engine developed by a Rolls Royce engineer back in the 80's--no doubt went the same way with that engine you could fly a aircraft into space--just by flicking a switch--

reckon N.A.S.A bought that one--
