Well it gets even better. A colleague was watching John's machine work and asked him if it might be used to desalinate saltwater. John put a tube of salt water into the machine and it IGNITED.
Thats right folks, the most abundant resource on earth has just been turned into a fuel, and oh yeah, John may also eventually cure cancer.
The radio waves excite the salt and eventually burn the hydrogen in the water at 1500 centigrade.
Dont believe me?
Check it out on youtube. (link)

OH NO! HERE COMES THE ENGINEER! I hope this cures cancer cause it doesn't help with the energy crisis. The amount of energy used to ignite the salt water must be huge. Creating high powered radio waves does not come cheap. I do wonder however if that works in a microwave, I suspect not because of the smaller wavelengths in the microwave. Also inorder to use this in a car you would need to have an external radio wave generator which would make radios and/or cell phones unusable.
But as far as desalination it would be wonderful.
so 1.4kW is not feasible? are you saying that there is more energy needed to generate the waves than that which comes from the flame?
Yes thats what I'm saying
