Need a hydrogen booster?

What do you think of this?.  Is it better than the magnets I put on my fuel line to arrange the gas atoms for better combustion?   SC

Interesting read. I saw a pump that you install at your house on tv yesterday. It makes ethanol outa plain sugar and yeast. Price $10k.
I'm not sure 25lbs bags of sugar would be cost effective to make a few gallons of ethanol.

The thing I like about ethanol is that US workers and farmers make it,   Earn a living and we are not sending  money to the middle east

There's lots of hydrogen "generators" and kits on eBay.  There's also a lot of info on youtube.  I've been doing a lot of reading 'bout them.  I would say it's not rocket science, but in a way it is.  The actual process of breaking H2O in to H H O isn't that complicated and you can do it with stuff you pick up at the hardware store.  The hard part is once you have it, what do you do with it?  Just a little bit of harmless water brokend down into HHO gas has the potential to blow your car apart if you don't know what you are doing.  That's where the rocket science comes in.

Here's a colorized version of the Hindenburg going up in flames just to remind you that hydrogen isn't something you should gather in large volumes and play with . . .  
&NR=1

It's worth trying . . . just do your homework first.  This isn't gasoline that your messing with!  :lol:

I noticed that Stan Meyer, the fellow with the Hydrogen powered VW rail  was murdered.  His Hydrogen Gen. must have been to good.  I truly belive that anyone who has a workable system needs to watch his back.
     I  saw a another person on "You-Tube that stated that the oils companys are not going to go easly if someone does gets it right.
     Just remember what happened to Karen Silkwood. I know it was for a slighty different reason,but it shows just what "These People" are capable of and know how to get away with it. It scares the snot out of me.
     I really hate to say this, but I think we need some kind of short term revolution with the American CITIZENS standing up and taking our country back.
     I know,Iknow ,I'm begining to sound like some sort of political radical.
     I just tired of being scewed to death by Big Oil and a out of control Government with no end in sight. I'm I wrong ?
      Sorry to Rant on and on  like this, but I'm just pissed off. Think I will go work on my Buggy now and shut up :lol:  :lol:

I'm not pushing it, but everyone should take a few minutes to read and listen to what T. Boone Pickens is saying about our energy situation.  A lot of it makes a lot of sense . . . but then, he is an "oil man" so naturally I don't 100% trust his motives . . . yet.  Anyway, check out www.pickensplan.com.

There is a guy in Trion that shelled out the dough for a hydrogen kit for his truck.  He is getting a mechanic to install it as I type.  Stay tuned for the explosive results.  SC
