Winchell Chung's Comments

This has been discussed in various classic works of science fiction, such as Ralph Williams's "Business as Usual, During Alterations" Murray Leinster's The Duplicators, or George O. Smith's "Pandora's Millions".

I ramble on about it on my website:

If you read the article closely, you will see that the system is basically "burning" (i.e., oxidizing) aluminum as fuel. Is aluminum cheaper than gasoline?

No, JJ, as you should have learned in Chemistry 101, burning hydrogen produces hydrogen oxide, better known as water. The combustion can produces some nitrates, which will have to be scrubbed with a catalytic converter.

Oddly enough, I noticed a correlation between AudioPad and a control panel from science fiction. It is noted here:
