    Interesting, but they don't say how long their fancy membrane lasts, other than longer than existing systems.
    I wonder how many mpg it gets.

    This is just a fancy battery using the energy from the creation of the membrane

    So that's what became of Beyond 2000.

    The air powered car seems a better option with no fancy chemicals or expensive nanotech membranes.
    But we've been promised it's just around the corner for a few years now.
    I wonder could you fill up for free using the air lines at the local filling station :pac:

    knowing the tax office they'd stick colour dye in it so you have green air coming out the exhaust !
