100% true

Hmm well its only a matter of time ayy? It's interesting that this is in my life time I wonder what will happen...

 

hmmm...seems a little far-fetched :\

 

Yeah, I think its more of an urban myth than anything.

 

Urban myth...

Automobile manufacturers wouldn't 'accidently' sell some kind of prototype to a consumer, and how else would you explain the unusual gas mileage - assuming even that part of the story is true...

Not to say that there aren't some very influencial lobbyists that would like to see us remain dependant on fossil fuels... I just don't believe this particular story.

 

Yes, well priests are usually filled with fairy-tale "100% true" tales about things.

 

:roflmao: nice one!

 

Yer hes probly chattin poo.. i thoguht it was the goverments that has a hold on us.. not the gas companies :S

 

Omg Hannukah #2!!!!!!!

 

True but then again we have and still are delevoping ways to get around this. So if you think about it we aren't really just sitting back doing nothing. (Well I kind of am [no lie] but others are doing something.)

 

Cars are being developed to run on all sorts of things. Seawater, for example.

 

I dunno if I really believe it... but... interesting story =P

 

some engines can run on H2O that's right folks water a mechanism in the engine splits the hydrogen(fuel) from the oxygen(byproduct) and there you have it. But all those folks that rely on oil, gas, and other products would be out of work, can't have that.

 

Yeah, because the fact that without fusion you are just turning H2O into hydrogen and oxygen and then back again through combustion (and hence wasting energy due to friction rather that creating it) doesn't muck this up at all...

Check the science behind your sources before you quote them! :icon_wink

Either they are just wrong, or they meant cold-fusion (as you couldn't put a 'hot' fusion reactor into a car without melting/evaporating it), and hence were talking about a theoretical concept that is barely mathematically possible, let alone ready for mass production!


The value of certain methods of energy production (such as fusion of any kind) is such that no oil company would destroy it. They would merely steal it, and become richer than the entire worth of the US of A. Because it really is worth THAT much, at least in the case of cold-fusion which would pretty much make humanity never have to worry about power again. Normal fusion isn't worth so much, but still enough to make any company that gains the rights to it one of the richest on earth overnight.

 

We were talking in class about car's and my teacher said that they have cars that get almost 100 miles to the gallon but the goverment won't let them sell them because the oil company's are such big "supporters'.

 

I stand corrected, I researched it once and it explained how to build this little gaget, guess I'm wrong.:bang:

 

Bwahaha! I don't know why this one made me laugh so much.

Anyways, I trust physicists to realize if there were a much more efficient way to use gas as energy and I trust a dork somewhere to tell us about it if they'd discovered any method of doing so.

 

The reason the Governments have such a hold on us is because gas companies can dictate and influence a lot of things. I think. I think I'm right on that one. Gas companies are fairly powerful in their own right. :dry:

 

in my opinon it is true we really r WAY to dependent on gas and oil and such and that may have happened i have seen some stuff that i know noone would believe me if i told them but for now their is nothing we can do about it but to hope some of these solutions such as an air powered car or hydrogen energy and such work out
