   The sad thing is that junior high school physics explains why it   
   is not merely a scam, but absurdly obviously a scam. Electrolitic   
   extraction of hydrogen from water takes much more energy than the   
   combustion of hydrogen will provide. The scam part claims "get   
   more MPG" which is absurd: it takes more gasoline per mile to   
   convert water into hydrogen than not converting water into   
   hydrogen.   
      
   Even sadder, law enforcement seems unwilling to punish the crooks.
