geNius posted this YouTube video that shows how this guy in his garage made basically a powercell that converts regular water into very cheap energy.

I have no idea how he does it or the technology behind what he's doing, but if this is true would this be the solution to our energy independence?

If this is true thats incredible. Infact you can even use water itself to pump itself, which is incredible.

Hax.

Although it's hard to believe the surface of the flame gets hotter than the sun...

Hard to believe, but not that much of a stretch. The sun is about 5500k and an average bunsen burner is somewhere around 2500k.

An oxy-acetylene torch properly set up can get as hot as the surface of the sun. And your average electric welder is usually twice as hot as the surface of the sun.

That's an impressive step forward, it's so hard to believe if someone could work it out in there own garage, then why hasn't someone come up with it before, and if they have how come we aren't using it now, WTF. It really makes you think about the nature of the worlds economies and what is going on about the impact humans are having on the world. Gosh I sound like a little b*tch right now *punches self in face*, wow that's better.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the website of the company of the guy in that video.

You wouldn't happen to have the next part of the clip, would you? I'd like to see how this applies to cars...

What is depressing is that oil companies will try so hard to run them into the ground.

I actually have a little more hope for these guys. They are proposing a new hybrid fuel system with HHO and conventional gas together. That's less likely to piss off the oil companies, and given the cleaner emissions, they could spin it as part of their "greener" agenda.

That's really really old. I remember seeing that a couple years ago.

I heard that oil companies and even the government really fucked them up somehow; they were really unhappy.

I'll see if I can dig up the link, but I doubt that I can.

I wasn't sure if it had been posted here, but it is fairly aged by the time I posted it.

The fact of the matter is that it's very possible, and it'll be interesting to see where it takes us, if it isn't dismantled by corporations and special interests. It is, effectively, free and unlimited, clean and efficient power.

Yeah I can't remember what it said about the government, they might not have been involved, but I'm pretty sure that the oil companies like shut them down or something. Either way, they were really pissed.

It'd be hard to hike up the price of water like they're doing gasoline. Up to 3.48 here in Oregon. Fuckers..

yeah 1996 there was a TV program about zero point energy.

Yep... Science (or organized science as it were) is more politics than facts, and what is seen as the public's interest has more to do with "entrenched interests" than actual advancement in society and technology.

...and people wonder why misanthropy is so popular these days....
