Mr Green kinda lost me when he said ..." My over the road mileage went from 20 to 40 that's a 50 % increase .."

Would that be like the difference between percent markup and percent profit?

Apparently "they" are still being born every minute, or so.

I just hurt myself laughing.

I invented my own urine for gas converter years ago. It gave on the order of 90 miles on a single gallon of urine. Only problem was, it was very difficult to get unicorn urine ... not sure if that has changed.

YOU'RE RIGHT JIM!!! it's really 40/60 = 66.67%!!! Any first-year grade school student could have told Mr Green that. Sheesh.

Default gas mileage hydrogen

I think you need at least 5% of your fuel to be hydrogen to make a difference in fuel consumption. If I remember your alternator doesn't come close to producing the needed hydrogen to make a difference...
A web site sells a cd that shows an electrical engineer doing the math proving how much electricity is needed to generate the required amt of H2 for your car electrolyzer...I think it is www.knowledgepublications.com, they have a lot of other alternative energy stuff there also.
