Default Fuel Prices

I saw a report and a video about a year ago on the news about a guy from Coral Gables (I believe that was it) Who produced a Welder and metal cutter that ran on water, then, he coverted his car to run on water using this new engine. I can't help but wonder which Saudi Prince bought the rights to this or is this guy in the bottom of the Gulf someplace? Did anyone else see this report?

For some reason I don't see a water powered Harley in my futurebut with 2/3rds of the planet covered with water I cannot dispute the fact that this would be a wonderful opportunity!

There is no free lunch and I am sure the Saudis are not worried about him. Basic physics says if you start with water and end with water, you can't take more energy out than you put in. In this case electricity is used to break the water molecule (H2O) into it's components of Hydrogen and Oxygen (H, H, O or HHO). Burn it and it goes back to water, releasing no more energy than originally went in.

I saw it to but I don't think big oil or our elected officials will ever let it fly.... There is no way they can control the water in the country.... At least not yet in our area.....
