HHO Games & Exposition Feb. 7-9, 2009 "New Energy For A New America!" Jerry's McCart's 308MPH "Glory Days" Jet Dragster Jerry Hopes To Be One Of America's Top HHO Installers! HHO GOES LIVE Feb. 7-9, Bradenton, Fla. Main Event On February 7 & 8 Open to the Public Both Days! Seminars Feb. 7 and 8 The HHO Foundation Developer Workshops on Standards & Certification Feb. 9, 8AM - 5PM A Note to Readers Many thanks for joining us to learn more about the upcoming non-profit HHO Games & Exposition and the vast potential that hydrogen-on-demand (HHO) systems offer to our country - as a significant new cottage industry that is boosting our economy and helping the jobless, reducing our dependence on foreign oil, and bringing pollution-free engines to clean up our environment. It's true: Americans can turn water into gas to fuel their cars! Americans can do anything! Few realize that even after the substantial savings on gas, HHO burns all the fuel in gasoline or diesel engines and results in zero emissions at the tailpipe. But that is just the beginning of the vast promise this fuel holds for America and the world. On exhibit at the Games will be a huge variety of combustion-engines that use HHO, or hydrogen-on-demand. Vendors will display HHO kits that can power your house, cool your home, run motors and do many other things with a free, energy-efficient fuel made from water! To sign up, go to the SIGN UP NOW link above. On that page, click the SIGN-UP - SPACE RESERVATION AGREEMENT link at the top. At the end of the Agreement, fill out the form and fax, email or mail it to us. Finally, make your payment for a`Vendor or Demonstrator space via PayPal on the SING UP NOW page. As always, HHO Inventors are offered free space when they sign up in advance! An observation that we can produce hydrogen with "two spoons and a cookie jar" - literally - was the inspiration for the HHO Games T-Shirt, which will be on sale in Booth 4-C. HHO Games Image At the non-profit HHO Games in this sunny, beautiful South Florida Gulf Coast resort community, fuel-efficient, pollution-free green hybrid cars, pickups, semi-trucks, vans, boats, generators and motors that run with HHO added to gasoline or diesel fuel will be displayed in a public setting. Bradenton is just 48 miles south of Tampa and 10 miles north of Sarasota, Fla., close to beaches and warm, sunny and dry throughout February. Thise who need hotels are urged to make reservations now - February is the height of the busy toruist season here, when visitors from around the world descend on our beautiful beaches. Once again, Inventors who sign up in advance (see link above) with original HHO kits of their own design and construction to demonstrate, there is no charge to participate. A special, prominent place at the show is reserved for those who sign up in advance. Proceeds from this event will be used to supportto the HHO Foundation's future educational efforts, including the Jarboe's Mill "Alternative Energy Show 'n Tell" event in May. Once again, we anticipate television, radio and print publicity coverage that will show the world what Americans infused with the spirit of invention can do. Here's the latest, as of 7:02AM, Nov. 17: When we looked at the calendar, we realized that there's a pretty long gap between the November event in Palmetto, Fla., and the May event at Jarboe's Mill in Maryland. We didn't want to let any enthusiasm created by the Games in November to slip away, so we bit the bullet and decided to set the next HHO Games for Feb. 7-0, and have the Games over a beautiful weekend South Florida's Gulf Coast. We plan to include a Feb. 9 seminar for the hard-core HHO enthusiasts who came to the 6-hour ZeroFossilFuels seminar on Friday, Nov. 14, and other seminars aimed at the egeneral public and new HHO enthusiasts on Feb. 6 and 7. Those will focus on the nuts and bolts of building, testing, and safely installing hydrogen-on-demand kits in a variety of vehicles. We also plan to have more of the very successful installations of kits and EFIEs - presuming we haven't invented our way out of the computer dilemma by then! We have yet to determine a site, but the new campus of Manatee Technical Institute has been generously offered to us by Dr. Mary Cantrell, president of the college, after our successful event there last Friday. The new campus is close to South Florida's I-75 artery. Another site in downtown Bradenton is under consideration, and we will look at others as the weeks progress. Once again, the best Vendor spaces will be offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. Demonstrators will likely have an outdoor space. Inventors will be indoors, as always. The event admission charge may rise to $3, which remains a comfortable price that will not deter even the needy. We will try to close sign-ups earlier so that we can have a better-organized event, with better sound and more spacious conference rooms. Calls today from Ralph Guggar of MileageSeekersHHO, who is on his way to install some of his prize-winning kits for Ed Carter of Harker's Island, N.C., the Water 4 Gas 4 Boats entrepreneur who brought his 20-foot 1988 classic Shamrock to the show. Ed is returning with a larger boat, and we hope to see him with it at the HHO Games in February! Jose Elizando of HH02HHO in Arlington, Tex., who stopped in Miami for a trip to the beaches and raved about the beauty of our state. He told us of a possible tie-up between top prize-winner Jim Tarantola of HighPerformanceFuelCells of Tampa and Ozzie Freedom's new Amazon-like Water4Gas marketing site. Godd luck to both of you! ~BULLETINS~ We were deeply honored to be elected Chairman of the newly-formed HHO Foundation, whose mission statement includes the elimination of our dependence on petroleum-based and polluting fossil fuels and the advancement of hydrogen. The Foundation will work to create standards for the entire HHO industry. An advisory board with 12 members was named to guide the Foundation through its early stages. The board will be expanded with the addition of other leaders in the HHO industry. There was a unanimous feeling of being on the cusp of history and of creating an organization that will have a historic role in America's transition to hydrogen fuel. The HHO Foundation, headquartered at 4119 61st Ave. Ter. W., Unit 305C, Bradenton, FL 34210, is now officially established. The Secretary is Dr. Timm Finfrock, and the Vice President is George Papp (congratulations to both of you!). We will be most grateful for the advice of our new Advisory Board, and for your suggestion of additional members. We will also appreciate any donations to the organization, which was registered online as a Florida non-profit this morning. We intend to establish professional standards and conduct educational activities and public outreach for the HHO industry. The HHO Foundation's first event is under consideration for early-to-mid February. We will also support the Alternative Energy Show 'n Tell gathering at Jarboe's Mill in May, and possibly a second HHO Games event in Bradenton, Los Angeles or the Midwest next Veteran's Day. Jerry Watkins, Dr. Timm Finfrock, Ralph Guggar and George Papp, ZeroFossilFuels and others had been meeting informally throughout the week at Howard Johnson's Express Inn in Bradenton to mull over the creation of the HHO Foundation and its goals. A Website will be developed - hhofoundation.org - in coming weeks to serve as a conduit for addition of advisory board members, structuring future projects and disseminating vital information to the industry and public. The HHO Games ended with a bang Friday afternoon as Jeffrey Riddle and Craig Youngberg both demonstrated extraordinary kits that produced more than 12 liters per minute and from 4.5 to 5.8 liters per minute, respectively. That helped satisfy the curiosity of many seminar-goers who wondered how feasible it is to meet ZeroFossilFuel's standard of a liter per minute of HHO gas volume production for every liter of engine capacity. Even with these high levels of production, Zero said, the volume of HHO is not likely to ever exceed 5% of the total volume of HHO and gasoline in standard engines. Jeffrey's kit, developed with partner Terry Galyon in Florida and Kansas, was keyed to the throttle and was mounted in the bed of his pickup truck in a clear Plexiglas, 20-gallon container that had a total of six half-inch translucent silicon hoses, and as his assistant troy worked the throttle, the volume pumped from two incoming hoses grew accordingly. George Papp of MileageSeekersHHO rigged a workaround for his Dwyer industrail-grade variable flow meter's 3/8" hoses and was astonished, as was the growing crowd around the veicle, when the multiple measuring gauges actually exceeded the flow meter's 11.1 liter per minute capacity. Unfortunately, we didn't get a look under the hood to see where all the power was cxoming from. The unit was pulling 19 volts. We didn't catch the efficiency rating. Craig Youngberg's 64-plate cell produced approximately 5 liters per minute in the classroom setting, and was running 4.6mmw on the efficiency scale, when 7 is 100%-efficient electrolysis. It drew 3 volts across each cell. The Port Charlotte inventor powered his unit with two 24-amp batteries, and it was contained in bright yellow plastic housing resembling that of a surveyor's case. This was a unit with no secrets, and it gave us all even more confidence that with additional tweaking the Zero standard can be met. In an exciting development, Prof. Cliff Ricketts offered the HHO Games & Exposition the Middle Tennessee State University campus for a future show. An hour later, Dr. Mary Cantrell, president of Manatee Technical Institute, offered us our choice of two campuses - the new one near I-75 in Lakewood Ranch, or the current one on 34th St. in Bradenton, a few blocks from my home. We were pleasantly overwhelmed with Prof. Rickett's offer, then bowled over by Dr. Cantrell's. We hope we can take advantage of both locations in the next year. Cliff Ricketts held 100 seminar-goers spellbound with his account of cars run on sun and water built with small grants by students on his campus. He uses an array of solar panels to power an electrolyzer that runs a motor whose turning charges the solar array. The cars are like the one in which he set the world land-speed record for hydrogen-powered cars at Bonneville Flats outside Salt Lake City. We found a small tripod marked C 208 after the Zero seminar on Friday at Manatee Technical Institute. Please let us know if you lost it. ~BULLETINS~ We've sent a forceful demand letter to the businessman in Jacksonville who the day before the HHO Games started offered $5,000 in prizes. I hope he will produce the money this morning. If not, we are prepared to fight for it in state court. I intend to give what I can out of my own pocket. Given the evidence, we are likely to prevail, we feel. We have heard second-hand the complaints concerning this matter, and if appropriate we will respond to them at on this site later this morning. Update, 833AM We have announced the winners of the HHO Games this morning. They have been informally acknowledged in (relative) privacy. Use the link at the top of this page to see the list. Congratulations to all of them! Bill and Tom Lang's seminar on the history of HHO proved to be a wide-ranging discussion of HHO technology from 1884 onwards as well as a fascinating insight into how these two inventors of the original Water4Gas HHO kit became associated with Ozzie Freedom's highly successful Water4Gas. This has been a mutually satisfactory relationship for a long time now. Bill and Tom recounted the use of "water jars" in aviation during World War II, where atmized water boosted the power of American fighter planes. He took us through a number of developments that individually added to the understanding of HHO's properties and suggested directions for the future. While everyone here probably thinks they understand the low-tech side of this technology, the scalar properties of hydrogen and concepts like Rugiero Santilli's "magnecule" and other advanced ideas remain just slightly beyond our reach. As he stood in front of an eager crowd, distinguished guest speaker Larry Jarboe got a telephone call from James Robey with the exciting news that two inventors had cracked the resonant frequency issue surrounding radiowave production of hydrogen from water by using a microwave magnetron and jewelry cleaning device. But even more exciting was the long exchange on the use of hydrogen in the future in large-scale transportation applications such as mag-lev trains. Larry is one of the leaders, with Prof. Cliff Ricketts, of the ZeroFossilFuels 6-Hour Roundtable this morning. ~BULLETINS~ We'd guesstimate that some 450 people turned out for Day 2 of the HHO Games, and according to James Robey that made the HHO Games the single largest event in HHO history. When we announced that to the folks at the EFIE seminar, we got a great round of applause - thank you, folks! You are making it happen, not us. The Wednesday event started amid a lot of confusion about who could do what and what was where. That was compounded by my own late arrival at MTI, even though I was out of bed at 5:03AM and working soon thereafter. Now it's after midnight on the morning of Day 3, and we find ourselves excited to head back into the crowds that have attended the seminars. Our parking has gotten moved once again, as I explained to most of the drivers and Demonstrators busily talking in the shade of old trees, on the lovely grass, on the vast Fairgrounds parking lot. Today we have been asked to refrain from anything remotely resembling Vendor activity, so please do so. Our parking is about 40 yards to the left of where we were on Day 2. The remarkable thing was the astounding number of people for the much-anticipated "Understanding EFIEs" seminar offered by Bradenton's own Michael George Lombardi of Aqua Fuel and Orlando stars Julio Figueroa and Efrain Gonzales of Green Gas Sensort Solutions. More than 200 people attended, requiring seminar-goers to organize themselves into a bigger space and deploy sufficient chairs to provide seating in the larger Exhibits Hall beside the conference room. That sat just 22. The questions flew fast and furious, and while there was lots of debate and back-and-forth about the thousand-odd distinctions between various automakers' computers and their interactions with HHO kits, there was a strong sense afterwards that a lot of ground had been covered - some thought perhaps a little too much, with a little more focus needed. The EFIE issue is too complex to mix with some of the political issues surrounding fuel emissions, but we heard enough discussion to broaden the context substantially. Nothing about HHO works in isolation from the rest of the automobile universe, and that was brought home to us. One suggestion we were proud of was that the industry needs to mount a campaign to get automakers - through Federal law - to introduce computers in new models that will accommodate the presence of a hydrogen generator on their new vehicles. Let's all get that started with letters to our U.S. Congressmen and Senators. We have to thank the Fairgrounds maintenance supervisor, Carl, for an excellent job of preparing us for the move to the Haley Room. We just hope no more than 90 people show up, but I'd say that number will be much larger. We're uncertain how to deal with that and will be praying for divine assistance. We also appreciate the great forbearance of Fair president Dan West, which was tested today by the unexpected depth of the Vendor activity. There is to be none occurring on Day 3. We had a terrific dinner at the best Mexican restaurant in South Florida, Casa Del Sol, in the small plaza aross from ther Oakmont complex on Cortez Road just west of 51st Street W., where we made the announcement of the prize for Best Installation there, and it was very well received. We are also ready to announce a prize for the Most Promising Kit. We'll let you know the results at the right time. James Watkins, a Kentucky man whose Lincoln Navigator got a lot of attention today, was one of the best-informed Demonstrators we've seen. He even had a copy of that elusive statute that provides a tax credit for adding hydrogen, and two letters representing Ford and GM that established in writing that hydrogen generators do not void the warranty so long as no mechanical issues arise from its use. That's a perennial question we hear, and James had the definitive answers. Many were also impressed by his partner, whom we didn't get to meet - he's the holder of a Ph.D. That protection for users grew out of the Moss-Magnuson Act. ~BULLETINS~ In a perfect example of the kind of deal we'd like to see struck, we were told of tens of thousands of dollars in new business generated for Vendors an Inventors. Walt Jenkins of Manateee County's lovely Anna Maria Island (stop at the Gulf Drive Grill at the end of Crtez at Bradenton Beach for a great meal - say hello to Wendy, the owner, for me) said he received orders for 200 units to install when he starts producing them, and 25 of those were here in Bradenton. At $600 each, that's a bumnch of money for a hard-working Inventor. Walt says he gets 70MPG from a Ford Taurus and got 85MP from another vehicle. I've see things sell fast, but not as fast as ZeroFossilFuels' well-priced Power Width Modulators (PWM). Zero placed some on a table and they all disappeared in minutes. His six-hour seminar is probably going to be one of the most important events in the history of this industry. It's Friday at the Criminal Justice Academy over at Manatee Technical Institute from 10AM to 4PM, and includes the distinguished Larry Jarboe and OProf. Cliff Ricketts in what will be one of the most important discussion that the core of industry giants assembled here have ever had. We've added a new feature - a daily MP3 events update near the top of this page. Just click on the words to hear the Update. We are grateful to Gary Jakes for the idea. Only one Inventor cheated on the agreement not to sell kits in the Arena, selling two as the day passed. We were not excited enough about his fraud against the HHO Games to mention it to him. The seminars at 10AM today with Bill Lang and at 2PM with Larry Jarboe will be in the smaller building just to the right as you walk past the Arena through the chain link fence gates. When you drive in, look for signs saying "Workshop" - that's us. On Friday we move on to the Manatee Technical Institute at 34th St. W. and 57th Ave. W. The formal address is the Criminal Justice Academy, 5906 34th St. W., Bradenton, FL 34210. There are signs on US41 South at 53rd and 57th Sts. You can turn west ion either of those streets to get to the college - both require a turn on 34th St. W. ~BULLETINS~ An absolutely terrific article about the HHO Games Day 1 in the Bradenton Herald by Carlo Mario Nudi. There's a big photo on the front page of the Local section, and eight more photos on the Internet. Hands down, it's the best article we've ever seen on our technology, crisp, accurate and factual in every respect! Some amazing statistics: Flow meter tests wwere disappointing for some - five kits tested by MileageSeekersHHO had no HHO production at all! One kit from Ozzie Freedom's Zuoa unit produced .8 of a liter, which is as advertised by Water4Gas. Another kit with the controversial toroidal coil produced ,9, An installed kit from one of the Demonstrators yesterday produced an astounding 3.1 liters per minute. According to ZeroFossilFuels, at least 1-2 liters per minute are needed for every liter of engine capacity. The judgment: "Caveat emptor" - Latin for "let the buyer beware." More amazing statistics: the Salvation Army cleared $879 on their food sales after the cost of food. In all, the HHO Games & Exposition took in $1,383 in donations at the gate, and we had a payroll of $620 and additional costs of about $150. James Robey sold out of his Water Fuel book and sold about half of the HHO T-shirts. Barry Holzsweig of YourWaterToGas said his franchises may have generated close to a million dollars in new business for the Clearwater company that is doing large installation sales centers and training. Other big winners were the Green Gas Sensior Solution EFIEs. Big crowds, lots of praise and publicity for Demonstrator Jim Tarantola of Backyard Builders of Tampa, said by many to be the Best of the Show, and for the Green Hybrid Systems unit flown in from Texas by Jeff Vernstrom of Chicago and Will Beaton of Sarasota, displayed by a former NASA engineer. According to Sharon Schmitz, some 2,300 people passed through the Mosaic Arena during the day. We missed 25 callphone calls due to being unable to handle more than 14 things at once! Huzzahs for the hard work done by Sharon Schmitz, whose crew spent hours and hours making up signs for the spaces, and the many unsung politicians whose abandoned signs were recycled for the purpose. Sharon made a gift of those nice blue recycled can containers to the Manatee River Fair Assn. The only time we got to sit down was during the phenomenal turnout to hear ZeroFossilFuels, whose crowd would have quadrupled the number of chairs on the planned seminar venue - close to 200 people listened with rapt attention in the bleachers as Zero gradiously spoke and fielded question for about two hours, and then was surrounded by a crowd for a long time afterwards. He raised a lot of issues and gave all of us great food for thought. One item: he thinks we're still three years away from a plug-and-play HHO unit that can de widely delivered. My observation: Not at the rate we're learning! Zero is back for the big 6-hour seminar today on Friday at Manatee Technical Institute in Bradenton. That's in the Crimonal Justice Academy, amid the hoopla of the Great American Chili Cookoff competition. What a feast - for the brain and the stomach! The hot seminar today is likely to be the "Understanding EFIEs" class taught by inventor extraordinaire Michael George Lombardi of Bradenton and yesterday's sensation, Green Gas Sensor Solutions' Julio Figueroa and Efrain Gonzales of Orlando. That's at 2PM at the Harlee Exhibits Bldg. Parking is in the general admission lot entered thropugh the Main Gate. Our plans to use the Lincoln Community Park for displays during the seminar break have been cancelled. We;ll meet and greet in the grassy parking lot instead. A seminar on Patent Law as it related to HHO products by St. Petersburg patent attorney James Coleman of Tampa kicks off Day 2 today at Harlee Exhibits Center on the Fairgrounds. Our thanks to Brenda Rodgers of the County Agriculture Dept. for making this very nice facility available to us! Our thanks, too - and just a real debt of gratitude - for the terrific Fair president, Dan West. He and assistant Cindy Patterson worked hard to help us pull off a flawless event. Many thanks to Michael Richartz of Amsoil Technilube, whose donation of $100 has made it possible to print up a 1,000 copies of a simple program for the HHO Games. We also want to thank Diana Hicks of the Bradenton Herald for her invaluable help in designing our very effective last-minute ad, which runs today. Bayshore High School students in Bradenton won Second Prize last year in the statewide competition of the Technology Students Association for their hydrogen-powered automobile, created under the tutelage of Charles Keyster, their amazing science teacher. We hereby extend an open invitation to all members of the Technology Students Association to join us at the HHO Games today for free, and to join us in the future in building the new Silicon Valley of the 21st Century right here in Manatee County - the Home of HHO! We'll be doing a live interview on the air with radio station WWPR Tuesday morning on the popular AM America show hosted by Henry Raines. Listen for us on AM 1490 at approximately 7:35AM! A second radio show is doing a live remote broadcast from 9AM-10AM from the HHO Games. Mitch Mallet's "It's Your Gavel" will broadcast his live interviews with Inventors and Vendors, and his Pre-Paid Legal organization - one of the most successful in the country - will man Space 1-A on the Back Row. Welcome, Mitch! Another great story on Tuesday's HHO Games - this one today by staff writer Dale White for the Sarasota Herald Tribune, the local New York Times Co. newspaper. You may need to register to read it. It was great to see Ozzie and learn about his impressive plan for an Amazon-like company that would market a wide variety of products for anyone in the HHO industry through a branded Water4Gas website. The best example of his idea may be an HH2 (hydrogen without oxygen) kit built and installed especially for the HHO Games by Dr. Derek Zupancik of L.A.-based HydroLectricPower. In Ozzie's 4-cylinder VW Jetta diesel sedan, the kit got 60 miles per gallon during the Water4Gas 11-city, 3,500-mile tour of the United States. HH2 is hydrogen without the oxygen; the kit has a separator between the cathode and anode, much like one pictured on Page 20 of the DOT Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's guidelines for hydrogen on commercial trucks (Fig. 12). Zupancik's patent-pending kit frees hydrogen from water at the cathode, and oxygen is freed on the anode. Both are taken up through hoses separately, and the hydrogen joins nitrogen in the air flow and catalyzes the combustion of gasoline more efficiently, Zupancik says, burning 90%-98% of the car's fuel. Ozzie showed me a sticker under the hood that says the diesel Jetta's HH2 kit has has been approved by the very tough California Air Resources Board. Zupancik says the kit may be tax-deductible. In building his new sales model for the industry, Ozzie will be recruiting vendors of all kinds of kits - definitely not just his own or Zupancik's designs. The idea is sure to spur a lot of comment, and sounds very promising. Got an exciting call from Terry Galyon out in Kansas, who says his HHO kit uses an independent power supply and produces hydrogen at a level scalable up to 20 liters per minute. The unit scales according to pressure on the throttle. I told him to get to Palmetto because it is the one moment in history - like the founding of the Internet - when opportunities are wide open and everyone isn't already closing a deal. Parts manufacturers, including Southern Parts of Maco, Ga., and investors like Jim Kleyman of Tampa are on their way to see what prospects there are in this new world of hydrogen-assist kits. We're also hoping that depsite an injured hand London's David Davies will come. In addition to cash prizes, there are many Florida governmental fleet managers and others from the private sector who are looking hard for a way to score big points with local governments and management by saving anywhere from 20% to 50% on their operating budgets by cutting fuel costs. A half dozen or more kits on display can do just that! We're on our way up to Clearwater to see Ozzie Freedom and his HHO-powered VW Diesel at the next-to-last stop on the Water4Gas Cross-Country Caper that will end in Palmetto Veterans Day, Nov. 11, at the HHO Games & Exposition. Keep your eyes open to a possible invitation to Ozzie's After Party Tuesday night! The address of the Clearwater event is 300 Cleveland St. at the Harborview Center, right in downtown Clearwater. A case of strep throat has stricken the wife of videographer Steve Heinz and his children, so he is looking for someone who is a capable videographer to take over his paid-for booth at the HHO Games and work out an arrangement through which he could sell DVDs of the event. He also had reservations for a non-smoking room at Howard Johnson's, which are now sold out. Call him at (336) 926-0058. There are orders for the DVDs already! We expect an article by Dale White in the local New York Times Co. newspaper, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, on Monday. The paper photographed local HHO dealer/installer CTM-Kool, Inc., at West Coast Electronics in Sarasota on Friday. To complete the steady stream of coverage, We've taken a nice-sized ad in the Bradenton Herald, which gave us a huge break on the price and has also generously done a front page story in their Business section for us. That will be the first public appearance of the "Two Spoons and a Cookie Jar" logo of the HHO Games & Exposition! Our latest Vendor is REK Machine & Mold in Space 4-A. Richard Konner will show machine-tooled segments for the 101-plate cell designed by honored HHO pioneer Bob Boyce. Hell also be happy top discuss ways to get your own devices machined in a crisp professional style. We've added three Demonstrations on Tuesday, Nov. 11, including an EFIE kit installation at 9AM by Green Gas Sensor Solutions, a brief (and very, very loud!) demonstration of hydrogen technology by YouTube stars SmartScarecrow and D3adp001 at 11:00AM - 11:05AM and again at 1:15PM - 1:20PM, and an HHO Kit Installation by Backyard Builders of Tampa at 11:10AM - 11:55AM. Great news! One of the most important advocates of HHO and laternative technologies, Larry Jarboe - himself a County Commissioner in Maryland - has agreed to give the Thursday afternoon seminar at the Haley Room on the Fairgrounds. Larry was the first to call together HHO inventors at his saw mill in Maryland, and the historic meeting between him and ZeroFossilFuels is a valuable moment in the video archives of HHO history. No one knows more about these topics than Larry, who is an experienced, dynamic and extremely interesting speaker.

We'd also welcome calls from anyone in the HHO world. Jeff plans to do a remote broadcast from the Games for WWPR on Tuesday. If you're into HHO and green boating, be sure to say hello to Jeff! Videomaker Steve Heinz is on his way to the HHO Games to shoot some of the action and technology that will be diplayed. He can also do one-on-one videotaping at a reasonable cost for Inventors, Demonstrators and Vendors at the show. Call him at (336) 926-0058 to reserve time. We know he's thinking about trying to make available a videotaped archive on a double-DVD set of the 14 hours of seminars if he can get enough pre-orders to justify his costs. We did a great interview with NPR station WMNF in Tampa today hosted by Rob Lorei, WMNF's News Director. He gave us 35 minutes, and we had about eight callers and email questions. We no sooner hung up than the phone began ringing off the hook! There were some really intelligent questions raised and answered. We're grateful to Rachel Frankel, a great publicist, for supplying us with a highly prospective list of green technology contacts in the press. The list is another invaluable tool in spreading the message of hydrogen and HHO kits to the world. With the election over, Bright House Networks Public Affairs director Amy Vandell tells us there is some freed-up air time to begin running our 30-second Public Service Announcements as soon as Saturday. We're really grateful for her help and that of METV's Charles Clapsaddle, whose very professional crew shot the commercial with race car driver Jerry McCart. Jerry will be on hand for interviews and autographs Tuesday - be sure to bring your kids! We've just taken an ad in the Bradenton Herald that displays our great new logo by Miguel Sanchez with input from Joe Shea and James Robey. There will be less than 70 shirts available at the HHO Games, so I'd recommend contacting joe@hhogames.com if you'd like to reserve one for yourself! HHO enthusiast Dewey Weaver of Raleigh, N.C., hopes to come down to do before-and-after 5-gas emmissions analysis for a $20 charge to demonstrate whether an HHO kit is actually reducing emissions or not. Typically, a good kit will reduce NOX and other harmful pollutants to zero! He can't make it to the Games until Thursday, however, and has had to reconsider his participation because he can't get the portable device delivered. There is a 5-gas analyzer at Manatee Technical Institute's Automotive Sciences Laboratory run by Cecil Trumbullbut, but that is not for public use. Author Jeane Manning's new book, Breakthrough Power, will be on sale at the show in James Robey's Water Fuels Museum booth. The book has a great chapter on HHO kits and the history of our efforts all the way back to Stan Meyer and Bob Boyce to bring this technology to the public. The book speaks eloquently about the struggles and sacrifices and their long battle to bring hydrogen on demand to the world. Today brought new calls for Demonstrator spaces and booth. Be sure to go to the SIGN UP NOW link above, and click the link above that page to filll out the Space Reservation Agreement so we can brag on you and your kits and other gear. A new press release is available for everyone's use from the Media button at the top of this page. Send it by fax or email to your area tv and radio stations, daily and weekly newspapers and Websites. Add a note about your project, participation and interest in the HHO Games, and fax or email it to them. Be sure to provide a phone number if you want to contacted. Do it now, as they need "lead time!" Walt Jenkins is the latest player to join the HHO Games on Inventor's Row. The former movie producer/director from Anna Maria Island has stunned friends with his installation of HHO kits that have helped some vehicles attain savings as great as 85mpg. Lots of calls today after the Tampa Tribune ran a great article by staff writer Yvette Hammett in its South Shore editions Wednesday alerting readers to the happenings at the HHO Games. That's the second one in the Tribune! On live display for the media, Mark Stefan of Lauck Auto, the largest independent Mercedes-Benz and BMW repair facility in Atlanta, will have an HHO kit installed by Jim Tarantola of Tampa-based High Performance Fuel Cells. Lauck Motors plans to open an installation bay once the kit is fully tuned. If you haven't seen an installation done, now's your chance! Moreco Energy LLC will be introducing a new Anti-Backflow Separator Bubbler at the games. The device eliminates the need for a vacuum release mechanism to prevent bubbler fluid from being sucked back into the cell during cooling. This allows clean water in the bubbler to stay there and not be mixed with electrolyte in the cell. Charles Clapsaddle of METV tells us the PSAs we made last Friday have been in "heavy rotation" on his channel for four or five days. They may start running on the Time-Warner channels of Bright House as soon as Nov. 6. Aqua Miles Technologies, owned by Jim and Kelly Strang of Sarasota, Fla., will be showing their kits at the HHO Games in Space 3B, they announced this morning. They illustrate the vast amount of attention HHO technology is achieving in this part of the country! BPI Of Dayton, Ohio, is our latest Vendor. This seller of a powerful additive to HHO that improves performance, power and mileage will be selling the powder product in Space 8-B. We're happy to announce that the inventor of a very impressive Joe Cell, Roberty Bley of Pomona Park, Fla., will join us on Inventor's Row. He told this morning that sales have picked up enrmously in the past few days, permitting him to come to the HHO Games. We're deeply grateful to the Salvation Army for taking over the food vending operation from Meals On Wheels, which will be collecting cans of food from thousands of guests as they pay at the gate. The Salvation Army Disaster Relief Team will offer hot dogs, Pepsi-Cola and other good things to eat for a donation, while Meals On Wheels - which distributes food to a variety of Manatee County's food banks for the poor and hungry - will do the big job of food collection and later, distribution. We're delighted that Cincinatti-based BluWave Hybrid, one of the most anticipated Vendors at the HHO Games, has signed up for Space 9. Their Website is a model for the rest of the HHO community, and we were especially impressed by their Installation video. We talked to the world land-speed record holder for a hydrogen-powered car, Prof. Cliff Ricketts of Middle Tenessee State University, and he'll be flying in on Friday, Nov. 14, for the 6-hour ZeroFossilFuels seminar at Manatee Technical Institute's Bldg. 11, which is normally the Criminal Justice Academy there. He is hoping to enhance his own kit with a better EFIE, and we told him about several that are expected to have a major impact at the HHO Games. We've got inquiries about five spaces today and all of those are now paid for, so a dwindling number of spots remain. Make sure you have Demonstrator spaces for your car displays by reserving them through PayPal at the SIGN UP NOW link on the top of this page. Those may evaporate quickly over the next few days - four were taken today. Our newest Vendor is Froilan Barnes of Advanced Hydrogen Source in the famous racing community of Sebring, Fla. He will be selling kits in Space 5-A. Froilan is fluent in English and Spanish, which should help our multicultural guests who want to learn more about HHO. Where will cars be displayed on Wednesday and Thursday, during the time off from seminars at the Manatee County Fairgrounds? We were At Lincoln Community Park at US41 and 17th St. W - just a straight 1.2-mile shot along 17th St. W., the street that runs on the north side of the Manatee County Fairgrounds. There are facilities and the cheapest gas in the county across the street from the park. Hours of display there are 8-5PM. I can't tell you how excited I was to hear a clip of Sen. John McCain played on WWPR's "AM America" about providing tax breaks for "battery-powered hydrogen" cars. He said, "I would do whatever I think needs to be done to help our automotive industry. We’ve got to make this transition to flex-fuel, battery-powered hydrogen automobiles. And, obviously, I would provide tax credits for people who buy these new automobiles. We’ve got to keep this industry alive." So far as I know, Sen. McCain is the first major-party presidential candidate ever to mention HHO! We're delighted that James Robey of the Kentucky Water Fuels Museum and host of its popular BlogTalkRadio site will be joining us for the HHO Games. James is working with us to create a simple, happy logo for the Games that he will sell on T-shirts and other novelties in Vendor Space 5-C. Great news! Bruce Wikoff, the St. Petersburg, Fla., inventor who created the microprocessor-controlled Fuel Logic, LLC, device called FireWater - a handsome-looking, polished white unit with blinking red and green buttons on the side to indicate the state of the unit's operations, will be showing this very attractive kit on Inventors Row. It's my guess that this one they'll be talking about for a long time. Patent attorney James Coleman of St. Petersburg, Fla., has taken Space 19 on the Front Row of vendors, the one remaining open spot there. James may find himself a very busy man! Lots of room for large and small vendors remains on the Back Row, and Demonstrator spaces are plentiful. He's also offering a seminar on Wed., Nov. 12, at 10AM on "HHO and Patent Law." The fairly luxurious Comfort Inn on US41 near Sarasota-Manatee Int'l Airport (SRQ) is offering a rock-bottom $51.99 rate, down from the former $99. Just call Melanie at (941)351-7734 and mention the HHO Games. It's about 5 minutes farther from the Games than the HoJo we also recommend. Steve Heinz of Lewisville, N.C.-based Max. Cam Media is offering to film inventors on spec at the HHO Games for future productions, such as on their Websites. He will shoot tape, prepare a rough draft and provide finished, top-notch professional qual;ity video at a reasonable price for your Website or television commercials. You can reach him at 336-926-0058. And since he's driving down here in a gas-guzzling Expedition, he says he may be able to provide a ride to inventor Bob Boyce or others - and maybe they'd give him some inside tips on HHO! Manatee County's Charles Clapsaddle has just finished filming the PSA for local access and Time-Warner cable that will be running soon. Jerry McCart, the professional race car driver, did the spot for us with his 300-mph "Glory Days" jet dragster in front of the Mosaic Arena below three beautiful American flags waving on the flagpole on a cool, sunny morning. Our special thanks to Charles' three-man crew of film professionals and to Amy Van Dell of the Bright House Public Affairs Dept., which is allowing the 30-sec. spots to run for free on its Manatee Co. channels. One of Buenos Aires, Argentina's most popular talk shows, "Cual Es?," will be at the HHO Games to do a documentary on HHO inventors and kits, we learned from producer Rodrigo Benadon today. We're excited about the opportunity dozens of inventors will have to find a sophisticated, international South American audience. The producers chose the HHO Games not only because all those inventors will be here, but also because they believe after surveying the alt-energy field that HHO is the most effective, powerful and practical fuel available today. The host is a major celebrity there. Interviews will be translated for use. In the news again! This time it's a delightful little article in the Tampa Tribune. a Media General newspaper, by staff reporter Yvette Hammett that she will follow up on in a longer, illustrated piece pn Nov. 5 in the paper's popular South Shore edition. The article generated dozens of calls and emails from spectators, inventors and vendors alike. A 7AM call from James Robey alerted us to the many inventors of some renown who have not yet accepted our invitation to the HHO Games. He mentioned stalwarts like Denny Klein, Walter C. Ralls, Ruggiero Santilli, Addison Bains, Cliff Ricketts, John Aarons, Kurt Annaheim, Andrew Michowski, George Wiseman, author/journalist Jeane Manning someone from Blacklight Power.and others who have made enormous contributions at great cost to themselves to perfect this technology. We have had difficulty contacting these folks, but we want them to know we have free demonstration spaces open for them! Their representatives should contact joe@hhogames.com, or call (941)753-1136. And a fellow who has been astounding the staff at Stuart Ford in Stuart, Fla., says he may demonstrate a small HHO unit not powered by the battery that can produce up to 20 liters per minute on demand, aimed at the heavy truck market. It would sell in the $1,5000 range, quite a bargain compared to some. Look for a big blue truck. A British inventor/investor, David Davies - famed for equipping 50 filling stations to help clean up pollution from London's cabs - who hopes to still come to the Games despite an operation gone wrong on an injured hand, is excited about the EFIE work in Orlando by Green Gas Sensor Solutions, and also the unit invented by Bruce Wikoff of FireWater Fuel Cells in St. Petersburg. There's a new one, too, that connects to 8 sensors by an elecectrical engineer based here in Bradenton. David's been burning up the long-distance wires trying to make connections with some of the top inventors coming to the HHO Games that he could represent in Great Britain. Meanwhile, with the recent spate of publicity, the phones are ringing off the hook as spectators with curious about purchasing and installing HHO kits get on the horn to find out details. Filming is set to begin tomorrow morning at Mosaic Arena for the HHO television Public Service Announcements being produced by Charles Clapsaddle and starring Jerry McCart's 300-mph jet dragster. Jerry's anxious to meet kit-makers and install their devices at his own garage. He's been a professional race car driver for a lifetime and is likely to be one of the best installers in the business. You ought to see that hand-built dragster go! The world land-speed record holder for a hydrogen-powered car - know who that is? Well, it's still under wraps, but we hear he may be headed to the HHO Games! There's no one more important to the history of this industry, nor more relevant to the latest technology that is driving it, than early HHO inventor Bob Boyce of Clearwater, Fla., who is now living in Tennessee. He's recovered fully from his health issues, but financial problems that plague uis all may keep him fromn the HHO Games, where we'd like to honor him with a special proclamation and other events. Can you help fund his trip to the Games? Let Joe Shea know at (941)753-1136. We're delighted to hear that Meals On Wheels of Manatee County will run the food concessions at the HHO Games for the whole event. There is a charge of $2 and a can of food for attendance, but signed-up inventors, veterans, the disabled and children under 12 are free. We ask everyone to bring at least one can of food for the county's hungry and needy. The foreclosure crisis and the construction slowdown have been particularly cruel to many of our residents, some of whom are thankfully finding new work in the booming HHO industry. Jim Tarantola of Backyard Builders of Tampa has taken another two Demonstrator spaces to display more of the wide array of Demonstrator vehicles he'll be showing, which already include a big Ford pickup, an RV, a motorcycle and even a stump grinder (now doing yeoman duty cleaning up after Hurricane Ike in Houston). At $10, the spaces are a bargain! Jim is one of the major installers in South Florida. Our special thanks to the Palmetto High School Honor Guard, which will present the flag and honor our U.S. veterans in a 15-minute ceremony. These young men and women are a deep source of pride for their community. The ceremony is 15 minutes in length. We had a great chat in Sarasota this morning with staff reporter Dale White of the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, a New York Times Co. newspaper that is widely read in South Florida's Gulf Coast communities. His story is planned for the weekend before the HHO Games. Sharon Schmitz, who has been a great supporter of the Games as a vendor for CTM-Kool, Inc., of Bradenton, Fla., has provided a unit so the paper can photograph an installation by George Hernandez of West Coast Electronics at 3910 N. Washington Blvd. in Sarasota on Monday for its upcoming story. We made the front page! The HHO Games are splashed across the front page of the Business section of the local McClatchy News chain's Bradenton Herald in a great story by staff writer Carlo Mario Nudi this morning. While we got our kit from HHO2HH0 of Cape Coral, Fla., not MileageSeekersHHO of Cleveland (which make fine kits) and the Games are four days instead of three, the piece is a great introduction to the large and growing audience for the Games. This important note from MileageSeekersHHO of Cleveland, Ohio: "We are in the process of adding an addititional industrial Dwyer Variable Area Flow Meter to our mobile flow testing unit that also displays our tuned HHO system with a self-circulating radiator-cooled cell," says the company's Ralph Guggar. "MileageSeekersHHO will be able to accurately measure hydroxy gas flow of HHO cells up to 10+ liters per minute! "All flow tests performed will have all related data provided on a flow test results sheet. The information provided will be flow output in liters per minute, input voltage, amperage drawn, cell temperature, cell type (wet, dry, number of plates, number of tubes, etc.), total wattage, MMW efficiency, and other related data such as catalyst type and mix amount, ambient temperature, test date and time. From a scientific standpoint, this is the only way to compare apples to apples - no stinkin' pop bottles here!" Some of you have tried unsuccessfully to fax us at (941) 870-3773. Please email your documents to joe@hhoexpress.com if you can't get through. Our Vonage line is unfortunately incapable of carrying more than two pages per send, so if you would, please either reduce the type by copying it and pasting the form into WordPad and choosing a smaller type face, say 10pt., and fax that. Or, just break up three-page faxes into two pages each - we'll keep them together for you. James Robey says he's happily surprised by the volume of listeners - 101 in the first 12 hours - who listened to our interview with him on BlgTalkRadio at 8:30AM EDT this morning. And, frankly, for a little while today, we were literally - not figuratively - getting a call within a second ever time we hung up on the previous call this afternoon! Carlo Nudi, a reporter for the local McClatchy newspaper, the Bradenton Herald, interviewed us today for an advance story on the HHO Games. He also spoke to CTM-Kool, Inc., manufacturer Chuck Winters of Bradenton, Chris Papp of MileageSeekersHHO and other HHO Games celebrities. We're waiting for the photographer now for an illustrated story scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 28. The Tampa Tribune reporter, Yvette Hammett, tells us her story is ready and will be published Wed., Nov. 5, in the South Shore edition of the Trib. A shorter version of the story in the main paper is budgeted for Wed., Oct. 29. James Robey of the Kentucky Water Fuels Museum is hoping donors will help him with the $400 cost of his trip to the Games. Let us know if you'd like to help! The HHO Games & Exposition are in the black. Our intial outlay of $3,100 has been exceeded by more than $1,047 so far! If attendance at the gate is good and all Vendor and Demonstrator spaces are sold, as we expect, we could end up with money to fund worthy inventors and projects throughout the coming year. We still have unknown advertising, fencing, personnel and security expenses ahead of us, though. We got a wake-up call today from celebrated inventor and author James Robey of the Kentucky Water Fuels Museum, who did an interview with us that ran at 8:30AM EDT on the popular BlogTalk Radio network on the Internet. We told him we hope to honor Bob Boyce, an early pioneer in HHO technology whose home was invaded by the EPA in 1991 and was forced to spend $150,000 to defend himself on a successful appeal - just for building an HHO kit that produced zero emissions. How things have changed! We are all in debt to Bob for his invaluable contribution to our understanding of this amazing green technology. He lives in Tennessee now, and is working on HHO technology again. Big news from Water4Gas spokesman and tech director Ari Cohen, reporting on the road from the 11-city Ozzie Freedom Water4Gas Cross Country Caper! Cohen says, "On Nov. 11th at the HHO Games in Florida, we will launch a massive program for worldwide expansion by coordinating the efforts of the entire industry, thrusting this industry into the mainstream limelight, making it easy for you to talk to everyone about what hydrogen-on-demand can do!" Traveling with live press, the tour kicked off in Los Angeles, hits Bakersfield today and is doing a CBS News interview in Fresno today. Stay tuned for more on this announcement! We have gotten a great deal on a big buffet spread from Morrison's Buffet & Grill, just across the parking lot from Howard Johnson's Express Inn on US41 in Bradenton, where so many of our visitors are staying (by the way, there are only smoking rooms left; non-smoking rooms have been sold out to HHO Games visitors). They will give HHO Games visitors a 10% discount on the 50-item lunch (normally $5.99) and dinner (normally $6.99). Howard Johnson's is offering an even deeper discount than the 30% they're giving to HHO Games guests - just $299 for 7 nights - an average of $42.71 a night - in one of Florida's hottest vacation markets. The hotel is 9.5 miles and 14 minutes from the Games. Our latest Vendor is the Water4Gas team of Laverne and Linda Hofstetler of Bradenton, who sell kits that strictly conform to the Water4Gas assembly guidelines. They will be in Space 7-B. A great opportunity has become available at the show - a shared 1/2 space in Space 20 with the Energy Builders Network - that's Zero and other highly regarded inventors who will surely have one of the most heavily-trafficked booths. It's the last space left on the Front Row. Anyone interested should call Joe Shea at (941)753-1136 to reserve it now. Update, Nov. 10: That psace is sold. Some aspects of the contract have been revised, mostly to eliminate unnecessary provisions and to permit installation of HHO kits. Additional Vendor Space opportunities have also been created on the ARENA SET-UP page to meet demand. Thanks to the assistance of Manatee County government and County Commission Chairwoman Jane Von Hahmann, Charles Clapsaddle of the Manatee Educational Television and Manatee School Board channel will broadcast Public Service Announcements (PSAs) during the weeks leading up to the Games. We hope to use renowned jet dragster racer Jerry McCart in the PSA spoys. The ARENA SET-UP page (above) has been updated to list all the current Vendors and to designate "Inventor's Row." Inventor spaces are free. Back Row spaces remain available and range in price from $110 to $250. Energy Builder's Network will be located in Space 20. At the start of Inventor's Row, celebrated YouTube HHO stars SmartScarecrow and D3adp001 of the Energy Builder's Network (EBN) will demonstrate a high-performance electrolysis device powered by a 1,000-watt generator that can produce up to 20 liters of HHO per minute. That in turn will power a 3.5hp, 90cc engine running only on HHO. The engine requires 8-10 liters per minute to run at full speed. During the 6-hour roundtable with ZeroGossilFuels on Friday, Nov. 14, the Manatee Technical Institute (W 34th St at 59th Ave. in Bradenton) is also hosting a Great American Chili Cook-Off competition. Also, stay tuned for news of the HHO Games after-party. Barry Hills, a vendor of HHO Generators, a unique PWM box, cooling units, dashboard-mounted amperage controls and other HHO accessories manufactured for Water Fuels USA in Richmond, Va., has signed up for Space 6. In Space 7-B, a high-performance products manufacturer, Kiker Wires pf Avon Park, Fla., will display their innovative spark plug wire kits that improve performance and mileage. A pioneer of the Florida HHO industry, Jim Tarantola of Tampa, will demonstrate a 1,000-watt generator, a 24-ft. RV, a motorcycle, a 4x4 and other vehicles all running on HHO in Inventors Row and in Demonstrator Spaces E8 - E13. Jim has launched a mjor effort to provide work through HHO assembly, sales and installation to more than 26 Tampa-area construction contractors who were out of work. He'll speak at 1PM on Nov. 11. His speech is called, "Why HHO? Why Now?" Details are skimpy, but ZeroFossilFuels has indicated that he may announce bold new ideas in gas-saving technology at the Games. Stay tuned to this page for updates. He will be with us for all four days of the Games, and will lead a 6-hour roundtable for inventors on HHO issues on Friday, Nov. 13, at Bldg. 11 the Manatee Technical Institute on 34th St. West near 57th Ave. in nearby Bradenton. All of the front-row Vendor spaces have been sold. but check with us in the event there is a cancellaion. Smaller back-row spaces are also available. There is still room for a few more inventors on Inventor's Row. Reporters from the Tampa Tribune, a Media General publication, and Sarasota Herald-Tribune (a New York Times Co. newspaper) contacted us for stories they are planning in advance of and after the Games. Howard Johnson's Express Inn at 6511 W. 14th Street in Bradenton (see below) is offering HHO Games visitors a 30% rate reduction on rooms equipped with either a king-size or two double beds, a microwave and fridge. The reduced rate is $49.95, and a 7-night rate is just $42.95 ($299 in all).. The Inn offers a covered swimming pool, free high-speed Internet access, a free Continental breakfast and does accept pets. The phone number is (941) 756-8399. A Clearwater company, YourWater2Gas, that is making an extraordinary advance in the HHO industry also will present at the Games in Space 17. In early December, the company will open a 9-bay HHO installation facility that will offer a hydrogen kit, computer ebhancement and installation for $499. They are believed to be the first in the nation to go into large-scale installation - the important "next level" for the HHO industry and America. They are in Space 16. One of the first truly advanced EFIE kits for use with OBD-I, OBD-II and CAN systems will be introduced for sale for the first time by Orlando inventors Julio Figueroa and Efrain Gonzales of Green Gas Sensor Solutions in Orlando, Fla. Mr. Figueroa, an electrical engineer, and Mr. Gonzales, the world's leading expert on dry-cleaning machines, are also demonstrating a low-cost home heating and cooling kit powered by HHO. Another extraordinary EFIE will be displayed for sale by Richard Keough of MoreGoWithHHO.com, a Venice, Fla., company, whose unit avoids any interaction with the 02 sensor and instead addresses mileage issues with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) or Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensors, or both. Mr. Keough will also demonstrate a 1994 Mercury Grand Marquis whose mileage he increased with a 25-plate HHO kit from 17mpg to 31.7mpg. He is in Space 5A. Another HHO inventor, Ed Carter of Harkers Island, N.C. - a dedicated fisherman - is planning to show his beautifully restored classic Shamrock, one of the first boats to be powered party by HHO. A larger boat, The Manatee, will be tested this Winter on a voyage from North Carolina to South Florida. Local radio station WWPR has covered the upcoming HHO Games for months on American AM, It's Your Gavel, Rick On The Radio and the popular Jeff Steele green boating show. The official Manatee Co. public affairs office is helping spread word about the HHO Games. Mmore than 100 60-second spots have already run on WWPR. The Websites of Ozzie Freedom's Water4Gas, inventor ZeroFossilFuels, the HHO-INFO forums, and H202HHo (Cape Coral, Fla.), and many more, are publicizing the Games. Several South Florida television stations are also planning to cover the event. The very popular Keels & Wheels magazine is presenting coverage. A national Internet cybercast is planned. Games organizers have extensive experience in attracting national and international publicity in all media. More than 1,000 press releases and 35,000 e-mail messages have been distributed, and flyers are being passed out now. Despite the efforts of ourselves and HHO kit vendor Jose Elizondo of Arlington, Tex., we have not been able to raise prize money for inventors at the Games for the Best HHO and EFIE Kit that are judged "Best of the Show." Criteria for the prizes would have included quality of materials used, reported gas savings, unit price, ease of installation, safety, durability, controls, appearance and marketability. Mr. Elizondo is in Space 14. For vendors who may not find a full 480-sq.ft., $250 space still available or affordable, smaller spaces ranging from $100 to $150 are available through Sharon Schmitz at (941)727-7508. Vendors, meanwhile, will not only sell fully-assembled HHO kits, but can install them in cars on-site, saving buyers hours of work. For those who prefer to assemble their own kits, they will be available for take-home assembly with full instructions. Some newer items, like advanced EFIE kits, may be available for all types of cars. Two committed supporters of alternative ebnergy and innovation, the Hon. Jane Von Hahmann, Chairwoman of the Manatee County Board of Commissioners, will speak at noon on Nov. 11, and Commissioner-at-Large Joe McClash will greet attendees at a seminar on Nov. 12. Part of the event will be filmed by the County for educational purposes and later broadcast. Thousands of visitors will see hundreds of cars that use gasoline along with HHO, and even some that use only the hydrogen byproduct of water electrolysis. HHO is coming of age. HHO kit manufacturers have been invited to visit with HHO inventors and talk about the synergies their invention and these large-scale manufacturing enterprises can generate. In short, the HHO Games & Exp[osition will be milestone in the transition America's now making from dependence on foreign fossil fuels to the independence and progress that is our birthright in the Age of Hydrogen. See you at the Games! Best, Joe Shea HHO Games & Exposition Bradenton, Fla.
