I've been following James Patterson for a number of years because he's a
credible scientist and not just another hack who forgets to bring a part in
order to 'not' be able to demonstrate their inventions.
 There is still a timetable for marketing the water heater...sometime
soon..again.
 Apparently the thing works, no one knows why and it has reliability problems.
 Last I heard, much has to do with the actual crystaline structure and
purity of the palladium coating on the little plastic balls and they're
having a hard time getting the "right" palladium...and defining what the
right palladium 'is'.  Some works and some doesn't.

Oil and car companies aren't the big evil dragons they're made out to be by
people who 'blame them' for their own failures.  
 When you hear "Oil companies grabbed/ it supressed it", start looking into
funds fraud. [Supressed 'what', Dennis Lee?  Your exhaustless
Brigs&Stratton engine with the pipe going into an ice pack chamber that
can't possibly work more than 2 minutes?  How about the one that runs on a
water gas mix...except that water and gas don't stay mixed and gas vapors
will run an engine?  DUH!  The implosion engine and doesn't, but looks like
it does?]
 They are just like any other company that wants to stay in business in the
face of their main product eventually becoming unviable. The profit margin
on a gallon of gas is actually very low and the infrastucture costs
enormous. [5 billion + dollars for a refinery?] but they do handle vast
volume to make up the difference. No 'small' company could ever hope to
even get started. [Even 'they' got started before it was all so huge.]
 ARCO may still be the biggest solar cell manufacturer in the world...maybe
wind generators as well.  They've all spent hundreds of millions in R&D on
fuels cells, wind power and many other alt fuels...more than anyone else.
 Toyota funded Pons and Fleishman , the originators of the cold fusion
thing, [and still do] after everyone else [all knowing PHDs] brow beat the
heck out of them with disbelief.
 If anything, it's skeptical mainstream PHDs who don't have the funds to
take a risk or an ego that can handle something they 'don't know', standing
in the way.
 On that note, oil and car companies are staying a bit quiet about the
experiments that didn't work, or show 'some' promise but need a lot more
work. It doesn't pay to publically stick your neck out unless there's a
real head attached to it. You can find out what's up, but it takes some
digging.
 Part of that, where auto tech is concerned, is that there are many ways to
go, but only one can be implemented with available funds.  It will cost
trillions to make a change...and they don't have trillions to waste on a
wrong decision. [Billions maybe, but not trillions]  They aren't building
any new refineries for a good reason. [Which is a part of why gas is high.]
 The same sort of thing is happening with the Pharms, big commercial
concerns and silver nanotech...but note how many silver products have
appeared in the last ten years.
