John Kanzius may have found a cure for cancer and a renewable energy source too.


As if finding a potential cure for cancer isn't enough... John Kanzius and his associate Charlie Rutkowski have found a way to create energy by burning salt water with the same radio wave machine they are using to kill cancer cells.
Kanzius and Rutkowski were testing their external radio-wave generator to see if it could desalinate salt water... and they ended up being able to burn it.
"On our way to try to do desalinization we came up with something that burns and it looks like salt water could be used as a fuel to replace the carbon footsteps that we've been using all these years i.e. fossil fuels." said Kanzius

Umm...WOW?!?!!

1. shhhhhh

don't let the oil companies hear this!

Seriously, omg, wouldn't that be good news?

[TX-RAT]

3. don't let the oil companies hear this!

They already produce more saltwater than they do oil.

2. Well, except for that whole "law of thermodynamics" thing...

(you know, creating the energy to run the radio wave machine) this sounds interesting.

4. His machine burns water -AND- cures cancer? You tell me if that's "for real".

Next he'll be claiming it regrows hair, and produces
only cute kittens as by-products.

8. It's a floor wax...It's a dessert topping! nt

9. regrows hair?

I'm in--- forget the other stuff....

18. Well, Viagra started out as a heart medication until somebody noticed a side effect.

And now look at it. This guy made a special "microwave" for cooking cancerous cells with the help of microscopic metal particles. And one day he tried to de-salinate salt water and it started to burn instead. So, sure, why not. Unintended consequences are the mother of more inventions than you are probably aware of.

5. HAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHA HAHAHA

:rofl: :rofl:

[gravity]

6. If it sounds too good to be true...

C'mon, renewable energy and a cure for cancer?

:rofl:

7. The video at the site is amazing... makes you wonder if it is really legitimate...n/t

10. The eye liner on the reporter is even more amazing...

12. LOL

:rofl: :rofl:

[Deja Q]

14. What eyeliner? That's a lost oil slick... looks like a zombie.

:puke:

[malaise]

11. WTF? If this works out

we'll start fighting over who owns the oceans?

[Kutjara]

13. "Carbon footsteps?"

Sounds like a 60s psychadelic rock group.

[Deja Q]

15. It still generates heat. Still hopeful, and renewable.

[Edweird]

16. Looks plausible. This could be a major breakthrough.

Just keep them out of small planes.

[eppur_se_muova]

17. NO, thoroughly debunked. Search Env/Energy for several threads on this. nt

19. absolutely. if...

if by "real," you mean "really existing in the fevered imaginations of suckers and scam artists".
