The mods may wish to zot this one too.

It is very informative site but I did not think anyone was stupid enough to buy an AutoCool.

Was it Menken that said no one ever went broke underestimating the intelegence of the American public?

It sounded interesting, but I didn't buy it either.

There are people who believe the government wouldn't allow anything on TV that wasn't true.

lol *snort*

(ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, et al)

I always thought that was a P.T. Barnum quote.....doesn't matter, it's true.

If this truly worked, solar powered continuous ventilation would be built into the high end cars (Lexus, Mercedes, BMW, Cadillac, etc.).

The solar panel could be permanently installed on the top of the dash board or the rear deck.

I hope more FReepers become aware of the infomercialscams.com site.

Anyone who buys from infomercials deserves to get scammed. The markup in a department store is often 200 percent. The markup with infomercials is usually 400 percent to pay for the media costs. And the stuff generally is pure junk.
