Why do people fall for this? Seriously, to me it doesn't even seem like it would work. Besides, if it did, I could make one out of a pop can. Reminds me of that Tornado.

I bet the blond in the bikini is thinking, "This isn't my L'Oreal shipment!"

What WOULD "crack me up" about the tornado is what would happen to their demonstrator if you made a hole in the upper bottle and connected a vacuum
pump to the lower bottle.

the bottom bottle would fill with water faster than any human eye could follow.

the only reason it doesn't crack me up, is the fact that the vast majority of people are too ignorant or stupid to know that and thereby get suckered by the idea.

For easily shown, incontrovertable reasons I have little faith in the intelligence of my. fellow man.

like the current presidential race where some people keep saying we should
increase fuel taxes.

"windfall profits", does anyone here actually believe that WE won't end
up paying those taxes?

Obama wants to tax the rich and corporations...

As Fred Thompson so eloquently phrased it, the democrats only want to take
water from "the other side of the bucket"

People need to understand there is only ONE economy
and taxes on any part of it are actually paid by EVERYONE.
It doesn't matter who the taxes tax "directly" because those
taxed directly will simply pass on those costs.

Reality, not so complicated when someone actually wants to explain it.

AllanD, good job, I'm surrprised that someone can actually say something on the net pollitical, and make sense at the same time. Most people just regurgitate bs that they see on the news. Good point about the economy..NUFF SAID BY ME

that animated gif is completely wrong and misleading, as are their claims. The airflow will not start spinning like that and keep a tight spiral. It will continue on the path set by the deflecting fins. In other words, that pos throws the air right up against the sidewalls of the intake hose. It has the exact opposite effect it claims, it will slow down the airflow rather than speeding it up.

inducing spin on something is great if it holds itself together. Rifling in rifle and pistol barrels is good because the bullet is solid and holds together. Ever shot birdshot out of a rifled slug shotgun? Thats the basic effect that this product will have
A straight line is a better path.
