I am not sure why anyone's political leanings have anything to do with this topic? Yes, I can see your name is RightWingSVX. And yes, I can see that Electrophil's avatar has Bush being arrested. But until the Republican or Democratic parties start selling BioPerformance pills, they're irrelevant to this conversation.

Liberalism is a world view and not just a political leaning. It is a mental disorder as Michael Savage has brilliantly pointed out in his book "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder". You see this disorder causes a person to be negative about anything positive and positive about anything negative. So you are right Republican and Democrat does not enter into the discussion because it is a persons entire world view that is the real issue.

For the sake of argument let's assume an average 3mpg increase in fuel economy. Okay, at $4 a tank ($1 per pill x 4 pills) that's $4 to get an extra 36 miles. At $2.50/gal. and an average of say 18mpg it would cost $5 to go 36 miles. Gee, you saved $1.

On the flip side, if you have one of those mystical O2 sensors and actually have a decrease in gas mileage then you wasted some hard earned cash.

Anybody fool enough to pay money for this stuff deserves everything they get.

If this is the holy grail of fuel additives then why is it being sold through a pyramid scheme? Why isn't this stuff on every store shelf in America? Why is the product website written to confuse customers. Take any legitimate product, read the copy for it's advertisements. They are written for the masses, so any moron can understand. Let's look at a word list from bioscam fuel additive:

molecular structure
Brownian motion
molecular movement
polymeric chains
Higher calorific power
enzymatic catalyst
impels the fuel system
Aromatic and hydrocarbons based substances

The copy for this product is written not to inform but to mislead.

I can just see some redneck telling his wife "these here pills have Brownian motion..." The wife responds "you mean diahrea don't you?"

As soon as I read one of the founders is an internationally recognized evangalist and church growth specialist I had to laugh. Evangalism is one of the oldest cons in history.

I find it hard to believe anyone would fall for this.

And THE BEAT GOES ON!....

Well, just thot I should make an announcement....followed by some important responses to Meatball's inspired [don't ask by whom] analysis:

First, I want to announce that Robert and Adam have filed for legal separation...and each have matching restraining orders!

Now..for Meatball's comments (will the illogical conclusions ever end!):

The first two tankfuls would be $4...every tankful thereafter is 2 pills, therefore $2! the first two tankfuls have a special function...to clean your gas system (tank, lines, injectors, etc.).

Quote:

I know I'm not the only member here who has spent $4 to $13 for each bottle of fuel treatment...putting STP, Berryman's, Techron, and Redline fuel treatment additives in their tanks, hoping merely to clean their system....SO, it's not a waste, even if the increase in mileage were minimal! Also, how many people do you know....or have you heard mention..driving out of their way to save 10 or 20 cents per gallon of gas!? Your example above is almost a 10 cent per gallon savings, which some people would appreciate...PLUS INCREASED PERFORMANCE (that my SVX gets!)...AND REDUCED EMISSIONS WHICH WILL HELP YOUR SMOG TEST AND THE ENVIRONMENT! After the first two tanks, the $3 per tankful savings would be enough to impress most people! [25 CENTS PER GALLON SAVINGS!]

Quote:

You're right! Increased performance, reduced emissions....and increased gas mileage!

So, because you can't understand some technical language...therefore..."they" must be illegitimate...and misleading...??? [Very interesting!] I wonder how you KNOW they're misleading...if you can't even understand what they're saying (because it's too technical for you!)? HA! The reason the founders of this business decided to take it to the people in a network marketing format is: They felt that the impact of this product (LOOK AT THE RECORD GROWTH DURING IT'S FIRST 3 MONTHS!) would catch the eye of the oil companies (who just posted RECORD PROFITS WHILE WE PAY ALMOST $3 per GALLON OF GAS).....that the oil companies would shut them down (SOMEHOW!)....BUT with the grassroots marketing ..and belief generated by networking...The oil companies could just watch as we "stick it to them", more than just a little...with this great product!

I don't know Lowell Mimms well enough to make the judgement you just made. I assume you know him even less well than I do. I hope people in your life do not judge you negatively...as you have here to someone you obviously don't even know!

Thanks for letting me respond! Jim

P.S. ......just waiting for the results, My Man!

Wow, someone is a bit oversensitive. Ya know, every time something rolls around that threatens to unravel the fabric of society, there's some scam artist there trying to make a buck.

How many people got rich off the Y2K scare? Oh my, when the century turns all the computers in the world are going to crash and the world will stop rotating.

Gas prices have risen sharply in recent months and many people are feeling the pinch. Unfortunately, this creates the perfect opportunity for con men to make money off other peoples misfortune. This is nothing new, it just surprises me that anyone still falls for it.

BTW, you left out the best part...the diahrea part.

Jim, I wasn't attacking you personally but you seem to have bought in to this snake oil as if you were a cult member. This is a free and open forum. Meaning, you can peddle your snake oil here but you also have to accept criticism. You can continue to defend your voodoo pills but you will continue to be criticised.

I don't think anything either of us has to say will end this debate. I will never buy or use this product and you are just a salesman, not a product engineer as you would like people to believe. So press on young man, you may even make some money on this. After all that's what it's all about. It has nothing to do with saving people money or improving emissions. What was it PT Barnham said? Oh yeah, "there's a sucker born every minute."

I get the SVX. If he thinks for a minute I'm going to let him keep it and destroy it on these pills, he's crazier than he acts.

Then please stop the stupid jabs such as this one and save it for not exactly SVX.

Do these idiotic mothpills work or not?

Please keep it civil. I don't see that you could be convinced that they do anything but cost you money. That may be, but it may be interesting to see what the results are. With all of this negativity, no one will want to give their results and we will never know what happened. Thanks
