Wow. Pretty cool. We used to do that in high school, but on a smaller scale and it wasn't energy efficient.

That would be the invention of the century. Unless all the news channels are own by oil companies, I don't know why they didn't publish the story.

I dunno..I know it sounds ridiculous...but you raise a salient point...are the monied interests of the world so powerful as to suppress such technologies...i for one...think that it is entirely possible.

Perhaps sarcastic, but true, bunchkins. :)

I can honestly say, the powerful, rich lobbies in America influence politics to an inordinate degree....the NRA, the Pharmaceutical lobby, Health Insurance lobby, the Israeli lobby, etc.

Fighting a cold after yesterday's exceedingly windy, dry, and cold weather.

Yet another reason why I hate Fall and Winter. :grumble:

The oil companies usually buy out anything like that and bury it post haste... too much risk to their profits.

There was a movie once called "The Formula" and in spite of the fact that it had George C. Scott and Marlon Brando in it, it was a pretty bad movie. Anyway, the premise of the movie was that the Nazis had developed a formula to turn water into gasoline but it got lost after the war. Brando plays the head of an oil company and there's something going on in the mideast and somebody says to him, "We can raise prices and blame it all on the Arabs" Brando looks at him and says, "We ARE the Arabs"

Try steaming the nose out. It helps.
