Has anyone tried it? results?

and I wonder what the best way to get this type of water. Some of those systems are very expensive!!!

vortex water energizer is very interesting. It just mounts on your main water line and charges all your water!
Water is already charged due to the oxygen's higher electronegativity. It is a polar molecule, and this charge is what allows it to be both cohesive and adhesive. I don't understand what water clusters are, unless it's simply referring to the attraction between molecules of H2O, in which case, unless you constantly force an electrical current through your bottle of water, you're not breaking up any clusters. But even if you are separating molecules apart, they will come back together faster than you can blink.

I've been using energized water from one of these systems in my Brown's gas generator that I installed in my S2000. Between that, the Turbonator, and the nitrogen I put in my tires, I get better gas mileage than any Prius and and I've GOT to be putting down at least 350 rwhp according to my butt dyno.

Just sayin'.

That's why I electrocute myself while I drink water. Always and forever!

This is a joke isn't it?

No one could seriously even consider any of those write ups and claims as being anything other than snake oil, could they?

Is there one born every minute?

Spiraling of the water to make it alive! Now if only women were that stupid, we'd all get laid as often as we'd like.

It sounds like a lot of people flunked Chemistry in H.S.

A lot of people didn't have chemistry in high school. That doesn't make them stupid. And sometimes people who aren't stupid are willing to entertain the idea that not everything is known.

I'm sure the first time somebody asked for money to build a powerplant based on little chunks of an atom that fly off this one rock, there was more than one skeptic in the room.

I'm not saying the "vortex water energizer" does squat but drive an economy. But I also don't require my affections to be returned by my pet rock. A pair of googly eyes glued to a stone turns it into a pet. Kinda sketchy science if you ask me, but there it is

In other words, so what if it doesn't do anything. I cannot see how "breaking down water clusters" is anything other than pure laziness on my part if I actually buy a machine to do it. I could probably see more benefit from eating better with that money - even if the machine works. How would we even know if it was working as advertised?!? In the scheme of things, I don't see any harm in drinking "energized water" that is simply tap water.

I think of it as "alternative science," based on magic instead of physical science. If magic obeyed the laws of physics it wouldn't be magic. It might be silly but I think it's fascinating all the same.

This snake oil you speak of, where might one procure a sample?

I've been having a difficult time getting my magnetic bracelet off, and think it might do the trick.
