use of waters

Did you get the water out of the Cuyahoga River? If so, the answer is yes. If not, the answer is no.

is the river still burning?

Interesting the question has been put already once not a long time ago. Would it be the same person or is it a trend?

NO....

Next.

Yes.

But only for cooling and other illegal purposes.

Oh yes, water is used for the cheapest way transportation in the world, called shipping since the age of antiquity.

You drink it too, and irrigate with it too. Fuel? NO, at least not in this universe.

YES!

maybe this will drive you crazy: http://www.water-fuel-online.com/

and somebody from the Philippines (a third world country) has been able to do it...

Sure you can . The only problem is that you'll waste much more energy to get the water to burn than you'll get back from burning it; unless, of course, you use sodium, potassium, or calcium carbide to help it to burn. Of course, if you use these substances, the reaction will be so fast that if you use a large volume of them and a small volume of water, you'll get a spectacular explosion. But of course, I never said it was safe, I only said that it will work if these substances are used . So what do you say? Are you game to prove us all wrong about the flammability of water by trying out my suggestion of adding water to potassium?

Feeling I am, Master Luke, an IQ shift in the force.

Not in a petrol or diesel engine; they don't last long.

Water has always been considered as fuel, that is why you fill yourself with water to keep moving.

I am soo sad having to post this note. You guys all (including myself in a previous note) are completely misguided and antiquated in your view. Knowing the history, you would know about firewater, liquid lightning, strong water and moonshine as various flavors of that same basic water. Heck, in the good old USA a few decades ago the 18th. Amendment was passed to the Federal Constitution banning the production and interstate commerce in these vital stuffs, declaring this country "dry" in a timespan called Prohibition in the USA. A few decades later - having realized not being able to suppress it - the very same Amendment was overruled by the 21st Amendment. So, it is embodied in this country's most important document, and you guys still argue about it!?!

By the way - if you would not know - in Brazil some 60% of the cars run on it.

It is not even new technology. During WWII it was standard to inject the stuff into the engine cylinders during takeoff for some minutes to get some badly needed boost for those overloaded birds. Please do not take my word for it, look it up to satisfy your disbelieving eyes!

So, get off you high horses, and admit that in this century certain versions of water indeed can be used as fuel. Just see Brazil, where they do - and I know on good authority - they produce their own flavor from sugarcane residues. So, there!!!

Heck, you could take an old Chevy slant 6, say about a 1950 or so, drill out the carbeuretor jet a little (forgot how much), and you could run anything over 160 proof. It always seemed unfair to waste good whiskey on a car when you couldn't drink gasoline in return (I know this because of the time Joe Grove's garage burned down when we put gasoline in the still to see if anything useful came out).
