We never had the _right_ to bear arms like in the US constitution. Edgar, If I remember my High School history going back a few centuries, English Common Law gave you the "right" to keep and bear arms. Politicians relatively recently took that right away from you. A common misconception is that our Constitution grants us rights, but it was written in a vain effort to help protect the rights we already had - quite a lot of which was adopted from Common Law. And like your politicians, all of our's will do whatever it takes to take away our rights as evidenced by the very large number of attempts starting from the time the Constitution was ratified and since. But since we tend to be more stubborn than you it will take them only slightly longer. Don't know if you have the same problem over there, but here we have a gazillion judges, including members of the Supreme Court, that believe the function of the court is to cicumvent the lawmakers (who are criminal enough) by legislating from the bench to take our rights away.

I've forgotten most of this stuff (it was in the mid-80s). Basically, the ions cannot respond to the RF but the very light electrons can so it is the eelctrons in the water doing the work and being heated. A mist might work but I remember that the discharge was very close to the electrodes and fell off rapidly as you got away from them. This guy probably has electrodes very close together. That makes sense, since the field strength drops off so fast as a function of distance. How about emitting RF thru a screen or flat plane emitter; maybe there is some promise a modulated fuel cell with water mist or vapor pushed thru a carefully controlled RF chamber, then re-converted almost immediately? If there is a net energy gain in the reaction, then it should be much better than any hydrogen fuel cell I've heard of.... Get it worked out, I'll draft a letter to the BP board, I'm a stockholder.... you can split the royalties with me. ![]() Regards Doug King |

: Burn salt water instead . . . http://www.breitbart.com/article.php...show_article=1 Wilbur Hubbard People still buy diesel fuel?? How silly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOFbsaNeZps Here is the video from BBC showing my current veggie oil fuel mix in my totally unmodified 1973 Mercedes 220D and 1983 Mercedes 300TD Turbodiesel wagon. Both cars have been running on this mix for some time, now, and have been getting better mileage on used veggie oil than on $2.75/gallon dino oil. It's THAT simple.....except the problem of getting it down the docks! Larry -- Search youtube for "Depleted Uranium" The ultimate dirty bomb...... |

![]() I don't think this is what he is doing. If that was the case it wouldn't need to be salt water. Distilled fresh water would be preferred. They also said that it burns at 300 degrees F. Hydrogen burns at less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit. He isn't just separating out oxygen and hydrogen and burning the hydrogen. Something else is going on here. Check your figures Hydrogen burns way hotter than body temperature |

Getting more energy out than goes in?? This sums up Wilma's level of understanding of the world. Don't bother to read any further. |

Are you saying that the hydrogen lift bags of the Hindenburg did not erupt spectacularly into flame? Oh they burned alright, but being wrapped in a highly flammable material made the fire all that much worse. The disaster may well have been avoided entirely had they not put that on the covering. Hydrogen dissipates quite rapidly. That and the amount needed for most vehicle applications presents nowhere near the risks of an airship with flammable paint. |
