Not sure how legit this is, seems hokey, but either way - to dream..

Its very legit, there's lots of articles and stories about him across the web.

His system is very useable in lots of ways, its amazing (and sad) that there is not huge adaption for this.

that's pretty cool if he found a way to make the gas without taking a huge amount of electricity. the was always the problem with using water. the idea has been around for a while and has been utilized before, but it always cost more energy to make than you got out of the gas so it never took off.

though if i remember, the talk was always using water to make hydrogen gas, took a lot of energy to seperate the hydrogen from oxygen (hence why water is stable, strong bond), and it wasnt worth it. but that video mentions HHO, so maybe that's something different...although, isnt HHO = H2O? now im confused...

umm HH = H2

did a quick google of Dihydrogen monoxide ... came up with this and a bunch of other sites not liking it ... lol

Quote:

The chemical compound dihydrogen monoxide (or DHMO) has been implicated in the deaths of thousands of Americans every year, mainly through accidental ingestion. In gaseous form, it can cause severe burns. And, according to a new report, "the dangers of this chemical do not end there."

The chemical is so caustic that it "accelerates the corrosion and rusting of many metals, . . . is a major component of acid rain, [and] . . . has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients." Symptoms of ingestion include "excessive sweating and urination," and "for those who have developed a dependency on DHMO, complete withdrawal means certain death."

Yet the presence of the chemical has been confirmed in every river, stream, lake and reservoir in America.

Very interesting read there Dynamic....

I hope the Us doesnt ban that stuff.. even though its soo bad. I really am hooked and depend on it !!

So what? Most chemicals are dangerous. Doesn't mean we shouldn't handle them....

Looks interesting, Like cheese though, I'm wondering if you have to put more energy in then you get out? I was thinking he was using DeuteriumOxide (a.ka heavy water).

Maybe he is? I thought that had not been mastered as a reliable source of energy though....
