Exactly, Frank. I just made the assumption that he actually has done such measurements, and they came out unfavorably, but he's hoping that some automotive engineers can build an efficient working prototype based on his _concept_. He already has this thing hooked up to electric motors, there no way he hasn't measured efficiency for this prototype yet. He just didn't give numbers because they don't jive with his claims.
