In looking back a little bit, it appears you only come out of the woodwork when HHO comes up. The "scam" thread says it all and it appears you have some confusion about who got spanked.
Ha. You mean this:
http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ics-22462.html

Pretty sure hho believers didnt gain any ground.

Hho is the average to below average persons manifestation of the desire to add some magic box to a vehicle and no longer be financially obligated to replenish the fuel supply and for fill the desire to have free personal transportation.

When a single poor minimum wage worker buys a huge SUV and puts 26 inch wheels and struggles to pay rent or when a struggling familey of 4 buys 2 gas guzzling 5.4l pickups to commute to and from work to office/retail jobs I know where their priorities are.

They chose to magnify their struggle to look cool.

You will find my sympathy in the dictionary between sheet and syphilis.

@UltArc- "We are happy to help."

No your not. Just look at yourselves in the link mikeyjd supplied. Stop lying to the new guy.

@mechman600- "Never in the history…."

Pal, that was the perfect reply. It was, at least up until the "^^^WHAT HE SAID^^^". But I guess that was your stupid idea, and I just love to criticize stupid.

@Old Mechanic- "A liter of HHO has…"

Not helpful unless by matches you meant "catalyst". We went through this last time, remember?

At least you weren't overtly belligerent.

@mbolton1990- "From my understanding…"

Very well said, sir. Yours is the textbook appropriate response, you have my compliments.

And finally… my dear Frank Lee



No Frank, helpful would be something like "since we've not been able to ascertain by any rigorous studies that HHO improves fuel economy, few here will likely offer any help when other proven means are more readily available."

Because you seriously can't call your (and others) impolite treatment of others a "rational, logical, and fact-based examination(s)" of squat despite it not being "disproven, on so many levels, on so many occasions, that to bring it up again is just comical" because, apparently, too few here understand the significance of open versus closed systems and the application of the Second Law- to which I thought we'd made clear at your last spanking (and don't make me have to do it again!).

So how did that feel when I belittled you in front of others? See the difference?

And y'know- I really didn't feel like getting in to this today. As a matter of fact, I'd just looked at your air dam mod on your F-150 and was going to compliment you on it. I'm actually thinking I would like to do the same- time permitting.

So, with all respect gentlemen, how about this time we just drop everything with mbolton1990's thoughts?

"From my understanding it takes more energy to make HHO than it gives back.

I could be wrong,heck I hope I am wrong."
@drrbc

You are is contracted as "you're." "Your" refers to one's possession. So I am lying? Clearly you know me well, and I wasn't being sincere. Clearly I was making it all up. Of course everything I said was full of crap. We don't base anything off of testing. We don't actually listen to new ideas when they are brought to us. We just dismiss anything that comes to us that we don't do ourselves. Of course this is the first time, all those other threads of HHO being garbage don't matter, this one is different.

Don't ****ing call me a liar.

Burnt is talking about making HHO at home from grid power and having it be 100% of the vehicle's fuel. I think he should look at what has been done to make hydrogen cars work.

Spinning ones.

And leaves the SUV idling in the driveway for 15 minutes every morning so they won't have to drive to work in a cool car. I don't mean cold, either: this is June, and at 6-7 AM, the temperature is a pleasant low 60s or so.

Ditto.

As for the amount of ridicule for the OP, it's either that or have him come back later asking why no replies to his post.

You would be well served to observe the extreme skepticism with which this forum observes the HHO community and its activities. HHO proponents don't often post results of rigorous testing, and when they do their results are almost invariably inconclusive or obfuscated to the point of incomprehensibility.

I did find one clear write up once, and the message of it was, "well, that was a complete waste of time."

I can't remember where that was but if I come across it again I will post a link.

It strikes me that you didn't familiarize yourself with the neighborhood before leaping into a topic that has been roundly scorned in these pages for years.

Why not use your midichlorians and make HHO work with the power of the Force? The Force has been described to be a strong influence on the weak-minded - particularly HHO believers. "Use the Force, moron!"
