I'm game.... when does it go into production. We have to find a way to prevent the oil companies from buying it. That way they can't just lock it into a vault.

That is awsome. I wonder when that broadcast was because I haven't heard anything about it until I saw that. I'm trying to figure out what the catch is though. (if there is one) The radio frequency generator must use some energy to release the hydrogen and oxygen from the water, I wonder how much.

This new actually came out quite some time ago, but when I first heard it it wasn't presented as "saltwater an alternative fuel". They just said the saltwater was explosive.
That would be one hell of a thing. The problem, as someone else mentioned, the oil companies. You'd be dealing with a billion dollar industry that has the government in its back pocket.

Well, kind of what I suspected. I found this article about it on wikipedia. As I suspected the radio generating device uses lots of energy:
While the phenomenon is interesting, it is not yet practical for energy generation. More energy is consumed by the radio frequency device than is produced for burning. Efficiency-wise, they are presently at around 76 percent of Faraday's theoretical limit. (Other Hydrogen-from-Water methods, such as the one being pursued by Bob Boyce ( http://freeenergynews.com/Directory/...ion/Bob_Boyce/), are approaching 7x). |

Well the idea is nice. and i did think about the radio generator using power to create the salt wawter power. But when they come up for a way to harnes the power that is coming from the flame and heat maybe, just maybe be able to power a car or house. Just figureing out how to get the power consumption down from the radio generator. It's posible but like someone said about the gass comp. if they get ahold of this were sunk.
Also i wonder about what is left when you burn the salt water. You know like salt creep???? becase when the water eveaporates the salt is left. but what is left when the salt is burned like that. There's gota be something left over as a waste. or even in the air as smoke or something.
Just my mind gonig crazy right now. just wish that some other alternitive fule will actually come about. essecially this salt water thing with as much in the world as we have "almost" an endless supply. Now "almost" because nothing is endless in this world. if we build something to use saltwater then somehow we will find a way to use it up. |

Orient Master! What an INCREDIBLE STORY! Kind of funny that it was NOT picked up by the mainstream media! I'd bet that a HUGE oild company will buy this up, patent it, and shelf this find! WHAT A DRAG! I sure hope I'm wrong! I'd love to have one to power my home with my water change discard water!
I'm a LIFE LONG Beatles fan...WHY YELLOW SUBMARINE?????
White Album, Sgt. Peppers, Abbey Road and Let It Be seem far more creative to me. What are your thoughts and why???
