Default Convert your car into a water hybrid?

Has anyone else heard of this? I got a friend down in Florida who has bought and used this on two cars now, and he swears by it.

http://www.runyourcarwithwater.com Is the website he used, and he has converted a 98 camry and old Ford F150. I find it interesting that there is a guy in Estes Park advertising via craigs list to perform this for people as well, so I am looking to see if anyone on this board has tried this or know anyone who has?

Looks a little too good to be true, but now that I know people who have done it, I am open to the possibility. Hell I know we got people in Colorado on this board, was wondering if any of them would call the Estes park guy to see if it is real, and what he charges.

Forget the water and hybrids. There are conversion shops that will take your car and convert it into an electric car. Lithium Ion batteries.

I have looked at their website.
1. I already knew you can catalyze your fuel with hydrogen, so the claim of 40% better economy sounds right. You can do it with hydrogen, LPG, propane, Urea and probably even CNG.
2. yes it's possible to separate hydrogen and oxygen from water.

So it makes sense.

Ethanol is the worst idea ever...pushing food prices up, causing shortages, so ethanol will go up in price too. It's a lose/lose situation. Compressed Natural Gas makes a much better conversion, we actually have enough of that in the world to fuel our vehicles.
