Rob,
Absolutely wrong on all accounts. Firstly the disassociation of water
is done at 850 C which is the lowest on record. Secondly I am
involved in the financing on all ends and trust me when I tell you
money is not going to be a problem. Their thermocatalytic process is
as far from trivial as you are from being right on this one. It is
not at all costly at 100 dollars per square foot and according to the
TWO independent validations, it is the cheapest, most renewable source
of energy invented. Not sure if you also read that the Canadian
government seems to disagree with you and made a small investment a
while back. I know for a fact since I am involved that once they tie
down a strategic partner, Canada is in line at the grant table for
more cash. They just demonstrated their process in Phoenix starting
in May after 8 years of research. I would take another look if I were
you because this is the future. By the way, I have the test results
and that is why I speak with such astounding confidence.
