If only everyone could be as wise as you.

Like the husband who was caught with his mistress said to his wife: "Now who are you going to believe, me or you're lying eyes?"

I saw the car working quite nicely.

If you persist, at some point I'll have to ask you to smile when you say that, pardner.

I'm not doubting that you can run a car on compressed air. I made that clear in my last post. Therefore, your entire post to me is a waste of time.

OK, let me take a different approach, one that doesn't even talk about the physics. From the article:

MDI already signed with 50 factories in Europe, America, and Asia. The company is offering 20 licenses in the U.K. as exclusive manufacturing areas for cars as well as offering other licenses in the nautical and public transport sectors.

Doesn't that, in and of itself, raise a red flag in your mind that the story is BS? 50 factories? Does any other car use 50 factories? Have you ever heard of economy of scale? Nobody would use 50 factories. It is just a BS number thrown out there to make you think "wow" 50 factories. Also, they are "offering" 20 licenses. First of all, offering them doesn't mean anything. Secondly, why 20 licenses? Is any other car in England manufactured on such a basis? No, why not?

When you get emails from Nigeria, do you look up the details of every single one in order to determine if they are true? Or, are the language and the claims made so absurd that you don't need to? I would suggest to you that this article is almost as absurd as an email from Nigeria.

They have been pushing this car for at least 10 years now.
They have been "ready for production" the whole time.
Promised factories have never shown up, promised orders either.

This car has absolutely nothing to do with the compressed air engine starter motors used in F1, and elsewhere all over the world.

Every year or so, they trot the story out to gain investors.

Here is a story from 2000. It was ready to go then, too.

If you will look around you will see all sorts of claims going way back from this same guy.
