Well,  Ron is the mechanic in the family and I have chosen not to learn 
about the  inner workings of modern automobiles, but hearing stories like 
that, of  inventions or innovations that never make it to everyday life, 
makes me  think that they are true, for the most part, but they are 
stopped or  thwarted by special interest groups, in this case it would 
seem like  automakers and the oil companies would doubleteam to squash 
this  one.


I have seen a program on this, (maybe mythbusters) where they tested many  of 
these ideas and not one of them resulted in improved mileage and a few were  
very dangerous. I have also read in Pop Mechanics that these , so far, are 
all 
 frauds that don't work. Doesn't mean there will never be one, but so far, no 
 quick fix.
