Mr Metals,

Thank you for that source. I have been watching Dr Hockaday's work through the evolving chart of Manhattan Scientifics' stock, and it soared yesterday. This is pretty exciting, because his fuel cell promises to be much smaller than a transit bus.

Interesting that his fuel is the same meth water mix we buy in windshield washer fluid. Nothing I have noted in fuel cell discussions to date indicated the potential of methanol and water as a base. Always methanol alone or meth and gasoline.

Alcohol is used today to dissolve the water that condenses in automobile fuel tanks and hence allows it to be burned with the gas and expelled from the tank. Alcohol and water are mutually soluble.

But why dilute the alcohol? Unless you wanted to buy a ready mixed fuel that wasn't taxed as a fuel. It certainly wouldn't stay untaxed.

Bill
