Non-sense? "A Car that runs on Gibberish??"

From an old friend of mine who works at the top of the line in Honda R&D hybrids:

>"Nice rant, right on the button, or someone's button, however we have to consider a certain amount of technical blindsiding being another possibility just to keep the competition looking elsewhere while they get the funding to advance at their own speed, they are small potatoes. All arguments tend to recede in light of the video showing it being operational. Last year when I was aware of the latest (4th Generation) Fuel Cell Stack invented by Honda, the popular response to the notion of what they accomplished suggested that it took almost equal amounts of energy to create Hydrogen for it's tanks as the energy you're trying to save avoiding the use of gas, when Honda had already developed a Hydrogen Generation System using 1/10th that of the norm. Being as protective as any company involved in Startup R&D they naturally refrained in discussing the process in detail. The byproduct coming out of the Honda Clarity exhaust pipe was water. The car will soon be available for lease. It's an efficient full size car with all the amenities.

What is new, and evident here as well as the new system developed by Aquygen - http://hytechapps.com/ (pass it around) is that people are finding a way to extract energy sources directly from water CHEAPLY and that is new. Aquygen announced the test results of running a car using a mix of Aquygen gas enhanced gasoline in 2006 and were vilified by so many "scientists who knew better" they said, "OK, F Them...", backed off and designed a system to replace "oxyacetylene in most brazing, soldering, and cutting applications", and we're talking about 2 people, not even a "small auto startup". Maybe it's time for "established science" to get it's head out of it's ass and involve itself enough in Results to correctly describe the new processes and benefits derivable, instead of the usual knee-jerk reaction that leads to unscientific speculation of why it's impossible in relation to popular opinion. Argue if you must, but hey... if it WORKS it works. Go hone your cone.

Both of these companies were polite enough to Keep Their Mouthes Shut until they had a product ready for market. There is a difference. It would be nice if Scientists could do the same... AFTER the required homework. Otherwise, you've been dusted, and the stains are showing under the dirt. I refuse to be drawn in to a pointless argument. An opinion, outside of a legitimate creative speculation, is useless personal padding designed to keep the wearer warm and isolated.

Look Lindy - A Car that runs on Gibberish!"
