I forgot to mention, when I was researching this, I found a company that is installing this in transport trucks, http://www.ihsresearch.com/ so I guess the technology is real... but anyone actually try it themselves?
Here's a pic of the actual device that the company installs in transport trucks:

Here is a copy of an email I received last week. I'm wondering if anyone here has tried this yet?

Hi, the secret "they" apparently don't want you to know is that you
can run your car on water (and gas) using a simple do-it-yourself
modification. Basically, you can turn your car into a water hybrid
that uses both gas and water as fuel, thereby saving you 50% on gas.
I'm not a scientist by any means, but the easy way to explain this is
that the modification turns water into oxygen and hydrogen via
electrolysis, then uses the hydrogen as fuel. In other words, you can
turn your car into a water hybrid that runs on water as well as gas.
The modification only costs about $60 worth of materials that you can
pick up at Home Depot and auto parts stores. The best part is that
it's fully removable so it won't void your car's warranty.
I saw a gentleman advertising on Craigslist offering to do this for
people... That's how I first found out about it, and since then I've
heard from people who have actually done this and it really works.
This should be reported in every newspaper and on every television
station, but for whatever reason, it's not!
Before you get too excited about this, there are no companies that are
offering this service yet. That means that it's a do-it-yourself job.
(That's the first of 2 catches)
Don't worry, there are a few manuals available online that explain how
to do this... But... they are available "for sale" only. (That's the
second catch, unfortunately)
I warn you before you go online to buy one of these manuals: One is a
scam that isn't well explained and really doesn't work very well. A
couple of them do actually work well but are so complicated that they
require a PhD in electrical engineering in order to figure it out. The
other one that works well and is straight forward and easy to follow
costs over $200.
The one manual that actually works well and is easy and straight
forward to use is the one that I recommend. (They are selling it for
$49, which is reasonable)
This is where you can get the do-it-yourself manual that I recommend:
(they have some videos and info that explain better than I can what
this is all about)
Please forward this email to everyone in your address book, even if
you choose not to use it. If enough people find out about this and
actually start doing this, then demand for gas will go down and so
will prices, which benefits us all.
Thanks!
Jean

It's nice to see everyone helping this guy out. I applaud you.
(It was not too long ago that members here were slamming him because he was a noob asking questions)

It happens all the time on forums.
Do you think that this is what's happening? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercover_marketing

America may have been number one, but the vultures are swooping in, look who's buying up your (as well as ours) roads, power generation, and water plants as well as other infrastructure to collect the debts.... Europe and Asia!
Let's not forget that oil is bought and sold in U.S. Dollars which is worth about 1 cent now compared to 1917 (since the creation of the private Federal Reserve Bank) due to inflation. The U.S. Dollar has lost about 60% of it's world value since the intro of the Euro. This is a major reason why oil prices have risen so drastically recently despite popular belief that OPEC is causing it.
Remember every time the world private central banks (including the Bank of Canada) pump 10 or 50 billion into the world economy to pump up the markets and bail out failing banks, that money comes out of thin air, indebted against the tax payer as a bond. That bond gets sold on the bond market mixed with junk bonds these days, and is indebted to the tax payer at interest to the private central banks. They make the money back twice by lending fiat currency credits (with next to no backing, called fractional reserve lending), and then selling the debt (bond, from the word bondage) to other countries.
By pumping cash into the economy, the dollar, your savings etc. gets watered down. And the amount you have to pay for things goes up due to the weaker purchasing power of the dollar. That is basically what inflation is. The Dow maybe sitting at 12,000 but in actual reality it is closer to 6,000 because of the weakness in the dollar.
This is an example only (not real figures)
e.g. $100 billion currency in the US economy, quart of milk = $2.00
Pump in another $100 billion, quart of milk = $4.00
By doubling the currency in circulation, the dollar is devalued by half.
If you look at the devaluation of the US dollar, as compared to the increase in price of a barrel of oil, there is an almost opposite correlation. This is why Iran, Russia, Venezuela have now refused to trade oil in dollars. That is why OPEC is now considering it, but they are too controlled by Big Oil and the US/UK to attempt it. This is also why there is so much saber rattling at Iran.
Blindly saying America is #1, and refusing to see the possibility of a country on the verge of collapse, is not a wise choice.
Everything the governments do is pretty well based on three phases, PROBLEM, REACTION, SOLUTION
Right now we are in the problem, almost reaction phase (people are getting reactive to the price of gas), unfortunately the SOLUTION phase will not be liked.
Ok. I'm done lecturing, we all really need to look at the real reasoning behind what we are seeing now, and will see shortly.
Good analysis. You sound like Ron Paul!
On a side note, what a shame that the Yankees chose McCain over Ron Paul. It's absolutely ridiculous how ignorant the average person is.

They mention on the website that they have cooking facilities, but if you're flying in do you bring your own food?

Billy Bob & jonnybass here's the link
Thanks for the link.
I'm curious, what do you bring with you on a trip like that?
-
Just a question. Has anybody tried those air filters called KN Filter? A mechanic told me it would increase your mileage by 10% and horse power. The price for the filter is around $100.00 It's a life time filter. I'm thinking of buying. But is it just bull?
Apparently it is bull. I just heard something on the radio debunking those claims. I haven't seen the data, but from what I heard I wouldn't bother. Waste of money.

I have come to the conclusion that gas prices are not high enough yet to get most people to think about conserving gas
I agree. You just mentioned how people can save on gas, yet people don't seem to care. Another person gave a link to a blog with an amazing story about saving on gas. Nobody commented on it.
I've recently come into contact with a lady who has an awesome way to save gas. I don't know her website, but she'll send you the info if you email her. [email protected] (just send an email to that address and you'll get an auto-response with the info)
Anyway, people complain yet do nothing about it. I don't get it at all.

No I was not being paid in any way shape or form, I had pulled up to the nearest adjacent property to where i store the boat. The dock owners are very good friends of mine and I am very welcome to use the dock. The neighbor that asked for the ride lives more inland and up the road. I was asked if I would take them up stream a bit.
I am asking the opinion of other boaters here. The general discussion area. I am not asking for "flaming" at all. Please stop doing so. Johnnybass the flaming statement was not directed towards you.
Good question though.
I asked you if they were paying you because like everyone else in this thread, I'm trying to understand your story. If you really wanted advice, you should have explained the story better from the get-go. You keep adding bits and pieces to the story, but it still doesn't add up. That's why you're getting flamed. People are assuming that you caused it.
My advice to you is that you start from the beginning and write the story again, this time with every little detail of what happened from beginning to end. Then read your story, see if it makes any sense, fill in the missing pieces and then and only then ask for advice.
(Otherwise it appears to everyone that you're hiding something)

Wow. That is amazing.
What service did you use? ie, if I wanted to take that same same trip, who would I call?

Nothing wrong with owning high-end gear. It can be seen in all areas of the sport
Steelheaders can purchase a custom centerpin + custom float rod for $1700+.
Bass anglers can purchase 1 top of the line Diawa Steez combo for around $1000
Fly anglers can purchase a top of the line House of Hardy combo for $2000
Just because we can catch fish on a combo costing $100 doesn't mean we have to
Point conceded.

They were paying you, correct?

Ya Greg...I've known Photoz for a few years now and can remember how excited he was when he got his first baitrunner, carp rod and pod...
I just had to drop down to P'Boro to see this $1350 investment just to catch carp...(as a youngster I used a hand line of heavy cotton line with dough balls)...Hell, I've spent less for a used car back in my time...
Needless to say, I was impressed, and now have my own carp equipment thanks to some generous friends...(being retired doesn't mean a person is rich)...not that carp specialty equipment is absolutely necessary...just makes the sport a bit more pleasurable...
I don't mean to show up the carpers, sound negative or bump this thread, but $1350 on carp gear is a little ridiculous.
You can catch all the carp you'll ever want to catch with any decent rod/reel<$100. Damn, they eat canned corn for cripes sakes. Some say that summer crisp is the key, while other swear by peaches and cream. But most experts agree on DelMonte.

.. which is not marked on the map ...
For example, I wanna try Whitesville on Duffins Creek ...
but still couldnt figure out how to get down there
Thanks!
You can't find out how to get down to "Whitesville" because it doesn't exist.
Try looking for "Whitevale" instead.

How far are you from (Golden Beach) Rice Lake, time & mileage-wise? As a matter of fact check your P. M.'s
It only took you 12 hours to PM the girl. You're a smooooooth operator.

It never ceases to amaze me how these companies screw their own customers over to save a few bucks. That's not the way to run a company IMHO.
After reading your story, I believe that you should be refunded all money spent plus get a free unit of equal or greater value and/or functionality to compensate you for 1) your time wasted, 2) your aggravation, 3) being misled/lied to and most importantly 4) the fact that you bought a product in good faith and have not gotten what you paid for.
Based on what you've said, I will never buy one of their products unless they resolve this situation with you.
Check your PM's

What are your favorite fishing spots?
Who do you think you are coming onto a fishing website and asking about where people like to fish?
The nerve.
-
I just make little squeaky noises like Bruce Lee and they back off....
Seriously though, maybe I'm lucky where I shore fish...I meet up with LOTS of people and I have never felt threatened....in fact, most are down right friendly....and we end up chatting for quite a while.
Why are you making light of this? A serious issue has been raised here that affects you and people who look like you, and you're making jokes about squeaky Bruce Lee noises? ? ?
You're sending the wrong message.
I know from reading your past posts that you're a smart guy. I expected more from you.
-
seriously with all the Bull going on this is what we concern ourselfs with,we need a Bull section for this crap when I come on here I wanna see fishing pics and reports,leave this crap for the media already
Thanks for exposing yourself.
You are a disgrace to all rednecks everywhere.
You are a small pathetic excuse for a human being.
OFC should ban your ass. In fact, better yet, take off your white hooded robe and come down out from hiding up there in Thunder Bay down to the GTA with that Bull and see what happens - You better bring your shotgun - you know, the one that you used to get your daughter's husband to commit.
Bigot.
Kiss my

danbo, do you need to put those pictures in every thread?

Carefully re-read what I said. no need for a "correction".

LOL, some guys here are killing me!
You guys do realize that it was a LATE RUN this year right? On most of the major rivers, ALL of the steelies are still in there! The guys "in the know" have zip-locked mouths because they want you to stay at home while they slaughter steel.
I know first hand that a MAJOR steelhead river has 100% of the run still in the river. They're wayyyy up and just starting to come back down. You'll be smoking drop-backs into June if you're still interested.
The major runs were just entering the river mouths the week before opener... Damn, some are still spawning. You do the math.

Banning mailboxes? Ridiculous.
Has anyone tried this?
