[edit] Encyclopedic tone

Regarding the tone tag applied by Victoriagirl, exactly what were you referring to? If you can improve the article, please do so, or explain here what you think is unencyclopedic. --Blainster 23:49, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

In short, it is both inapprpriate and unencyclopedic to refer to a subject by his or her first name. Easy enough to fix, but I would prefer leaving the clean-up to one familiar with Roy and his work. Victoriagirl 03:03, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

And now I see I've embarrassed myself... My apologies.Victoriagirl 03:10, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Burning" salt water

Apparently this guy has worked out a way to liberate hydrogen and oxygen from water (Article in National Geographic). I'm trying to work out if this is hokum or not. While the source (National Geographic) is reliable enough, this article and Mr Roy's website makes me think it's yet another "free energy from water" scams. Is there any independent proof of this? Scientific paper? Richard W.M. Jones 12:14, 18 September 2007 (UTC) Ignore this, I've just reread the article and the discovery was by another scientist. Richard W.M. Jones 12:16, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
