Ok, so there have been cases where people have homogenously mixed water and oil-based fuels. It's called emulsification. I have a diesel handbook from Adele's (sp?) that shows that some low-speed diesel engines have been run on up to 25% water in emulsion with low-grade diesel oils, and those engines displayed cooler running temperatures and similar power with less fuel consumption. Keep in mind that low-speed diesel engines typically don't exceed 200 RPM.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
