Or as MIT researchers have just proven it just needs a little bit of 
sunlight to split hydrogen from water. Could it be that physicists have 
been missing a critical proponent of molecular bonding of water for the 
past couple hundred years and that recent research has filled in a gap 
in the knowledge base? Could it even be possible that we don't actually 
know everything about the machinations of the universe and there is 
knowledge that we could be learning in this next century that will make 
considerable differences to the laws that we know already?

Interesting interview. What he made clear is that we need multiple 
energy sources. My blog is focused on water as the source and hydrogen 
gas is a possible part of the solution. What I'm mostly interested in is 
this electrical circuit which can be used to instantly create an 
explosion from water. That seems like a very useful solution if current 
engines can be converted to use the circuit...
