He's one of the head engineers for a major auto maker. The technology exists for all kinds of things that would cause oil and gas corporations to be forced to stop raping us. It's too bad they own the patents to them.


    hahah, was reading somewhere about all the oil companies owning all the patents to this stuff..... :8: :8: Thats just funny. Ever hear of Aquagen? No? thats cause it was made about 1-2 years ago and is a car that completely runs on normal water, saw a news report on it, never saw it again.....

    It's a little late now, but why would not getting $30 of gas on one day effect anything. I'd just have to pump $35 the the next day. Besides most people don't burn a tank of gas every day, so it really doesn't make any since to me to not get what makes your mode of transportation to work go.
