    Yeah, but look at all that lab equipment...the energy to run all that equipment...I'm thinking it's probably more energy input to burn the saltwater than the heat energy that the burning saltwater produces. You can burn wood or coal too, without having a continuous supply of energy to create high power radio frequency to do so.

    I'm thinking that with gas at $3.65 a gallon it would be worth it! Don't know anything more about it than what I just watched though...

    But if you think about it, this could be a whole new way of generating electricity. those radio waves arent just in a small area, and if they bombard a whole POOL with this, you could VERY easily power a couple hundred homes. and this much safer than other types of energy production, you can shut it off at the flick of a switch....

    Im sorry but you think $3.65 a gollon is expensive, its not! In england we at the moment are paying 1.06 GBP per litre. Theres 4.544 litres to a gallon so that is 4.81 gbp a gallon. Then if we convert that to dollars thats roughly 9.633 USD a gallon!!

    Now we pay far to much for fuel!!
