Not sure where I saw it, either the news or a paper, but someone actually found a way to power his car using only water. The crazy thing is he also used the same idea to power a blowtorch, go figure, running a blow torch with water.

Yeah, maybe I can explain it to you.
Water: made of one atom of oxygen and two of hydrogen.
Because of some way(that's the thing I don't know), the oxygen gets separated from the hydrogens and becomes the 'waste'. The two hydrogen atoms can become electrons from a side and protons from the other, right? (Hydrogen is made of a single electron and a single proton). The rest you can figure out, right?

But I wasn't talking about that, actually. I meant the energy the waves are pushed with can be converted to energy.

The thing about those is, people are trying to get them started. Hey, we just got a few hybrid electric/gas cars out.

Yeah the electric models took that long to make, people aren't gonna switch over to water powered anytime soon. Idiots if you ask me, to afraid of something diffrent.

If you run a strong electrical current through water it'll seperate into oxygen and Hydrogen in the form of steam.

Quote:Back on topic, that poem was AWESOME.

That was a fantastic poem.

Oh yeah, that's the most technical poem I've read, Wise. It's kind of a poem that somebody who lived in a high tech place would make (think the other side of the sea in Breath of Fire 3).
(And as usual, pretty...disturbing. But I know it's your intention).
Thanks guys! I do what I can to help the cause.

Really? Steam is comprised of ions? Which chemistry books have you been reading? An electric current can separate water into hydrogen and oxygen, but it would require a lot of electricity to make this practical for powering a car. That electricity still has to come from somewhere. Maybe we can burn garbage (in a non-polluting way, of course).

Does this answer your question, Wise?

I would tell you but I'm sure I'd offend some people in this place.

I read this exactly written the same way in a game. Coincidence it's the same game Shadow and I have played, at least from what I've heard.
