Not at all.

Your example works just as well as mine. Your example:

"If a man walks into an automotive professor's office with a claim such as you've noted above, and the professor calls him an "idiot," tells him he has no business talking about science, refuses to even engage in a discussion of the theory behind the device on the basis that it's "implausible" or tells him that it "can't possibly work" without telling him why (pronouncement rather than explanation), then, yes, I would call him a pseudo-skeptic.

It's one thing to simply ignore someone and not hear what they have to say."

Let's review the claim: I have a carbuerator sized device that can power a car using only water and air as input. And you should be very interested in hearing about it.

There is ample technical detail right in those 2 sentences to evaluate the entire scheme. I am sorry that you do not see this.
