British company claims it created a fuel that can be sold at $1.50 based on hydrogen that would run in gasoline engines. If this is true, it would be fantastic. It's certainly more believable than the Irish Steorn, which claimed to have created a perpetual-motion machine to produce unlimited free energy. Even if it were true, what does burning this stuff produce? Burning hydrogen produces water, which would ruin a normal gasoline-powered car.
Update: Their website has more details. First, the $1.50 looks wrong. The price of hydrogen given is $100 a barrel. Maybe they meant $100 buys a barrel of their special liquid hydrogen, as a barrel of oil does not translate into a barrel of gas, or maybe the article really meant £1.50 not $1.50. Oh, and their fuel does produce water vapor. Wouldn't that rust the engine and exhaust system from the inside out? Or is that what the cheap car conversion is all about?
