A water fuel powered car patent...........from 1935

Although using an electrolyte it's still a car powered by a mix of WFC gases and air.
The patents were granted to mr. Garrett in 1935, it was even featured in an issue of "Popular Mechanics",



Yet here we are, some 80 years later, and still no mainstream revolutionary way of powering vehicles of sort.
From what I can tell mr. Garrett wasn't assassinated, his patents weren't bought up by whatever powers that be, yet we're all still driving around filling up our cars with fossile fuels whilst complaining about ever increasing gas prices.

What will happen when for example gpssonar makes his WFC setup available to the World?
Will history repeat itself?
Is it (next to) impossible to get people to adapt to a WFC life and in the process help saving this small planet from environmental issues etc, not to mention helping ourselves to a much better way of life?

Btw, here's a few interesting points on WFC howto's,
Quote
Just as an example, Garrett's patent contains two methods to increase efficiency... 1) a bubbling system (pipe 51 in Fig 2) which removes any bubbles of gas forming on the plates, and 2) a mechanical polarity switching mechanism (Fig 3) which would tend to blast the charged molecules from the plates. Normally, hydrogen gas accumulates on the cathode or negative plates and oxygen accumulates on the anode or positive plates. When these gasses stick to the plates, this reduces the efficiency of the process, so you need to get them off the plate as quickly as possible so more water can come in contact with the plates. If you switch polarity, the like charges will repel each other just as like poles on magnets repel. The bubbles will shoot off the plate and hopefully float up and out of the electrolysis chamber.

yep... this is a good example. i think people are more aware now however,so the odds are better, but still our odds for failure are high.

things like open source, free flowing knowledge, and the mass community of DYI's on the net. look at 3d printing. if its practical or fun, and ALL the information is out there then it will survive, and even thrive.
