Subject: RE: BS: Setting water on fire
If you can separate hydrogen and oxygen by putting less energy into water than you get out of the hydrogen and oxygen when you combine them (i. e. burn the hydrogen), you have done the chemical equivalent of inventing a perpetual motion machine. I'd love to see it happen. It would end all our energy problems for good and all. But I don't believe it.
