This story only illustrates how freedom and human ingenuity inevitably lead to discoveries and inventions beyond our wildest imaginations. How many years have government agencies been using taxpayer money to fund alternative fuel research while this one person, following his passion for cancer research, stumbled across a possible answer to the world's fuel problems in his basement? Not only that, but discovering a new fuel using the most abundant renewable resources on earth. Now it will only be a matter of time before corporations figure out a way to use this knowledge to create a profit off of products that use this new clean fuel. When that happens, and the fossil fuel based economy goes the way of the dinosaur, we will have the free market to thank for it. A terrific capitalism success story!

Monday's Success Story: Salt Water Fuel
I know this story has already made the news rounds, but I thought the magnitude of the discovery deserved to be recorded as one of Monday's Success Stories. The YouTube link below gives the whole story behind John Kanzius's amazing discovery that salt water will burn when exposed to radio waves.

This begs the question, how much energy is the radio wave generator using?
It appears this device is merely breaking the H2O down to H2 and O. A 7th grade experiment.
It doesn't mean anything unless the energy out exceeds the energy used to create the H2.
Run the radio wave generator from a n electric generator run from a steam engine run off the flame, and then I'll be impressed.
"Working night and day to make the process more efficient..." no kidding. A chemist could tell you the latent energy.
Despite my comments, and I've been wrong before. Who knew this internet thing would be so big? I hope and pray he is on to something.
Glad to see The CapitalistLeague back.
Yes, I had similar thoughts. But, even so, there is the potential for use in home heating, or even a fuel source for a hybrid car combined with some sort of battery. I just think it is the kind of story typical of the American inventor, and one that inspires hope for the future.
Absolutely! This is America at it's best. A breakthrough will come. It will come. Just get the government out of the way and let us get to work. Worst thing the government could do is get involved and start funding.
Hey, there is still big (private) money working cold fusion.
Good to see you back.
