The problem with this whole discussion is the lack of actual experimentation on the part of the forum members and the lack of understanding by those who come into the forum trumpeting the virtues of HHO.

The chasm between the two sides is massive and obvious.

Forum members simply are not going to "stoop so low" to do experimentation on an "obviously useless" idea. HHO proponents are crazy zealots for the most part and naive researchers at the best. Because of the complexity of the subject as well as the high costs of testing compared to simple mass or aerodynamic improvements, we could be forever stuck bantering back and forth.
Rusty,

Firstly, I'm assuming we really are talking about real honest-to-God, on-demand, made-on-th-spot, YouTubin', bubblers and baking soda HHO/Brown's Gas- and NOT O2 & H2 mixed out of the bottles, right?

And if we are are, can you give us some hints as to in what conditions we should look for improvement?

Thanks
