On Hydrogen boosts Beloit

Here's the Better Business Bureau report on Protium Fuel Systems, the first company that sold this hydrogen-on-demand snake oil to Beloit:

"At the end of 2008, the BBB began receiving complaints from consumers in several states claiming that they had received partial orders, severly [sic] delayed shipments, or no parts at all from the company after having been charged for complete fuel systems. The company responded to some of these complaints; however, in early 2009, the company cut off all communications. Known phone numbers for the firm went unanswered or were disconnected, answering machine messages went unreturned (reported both by customers checking on orders and those from the BBB inquiring about the status of the company and complaints), and the firm's listed website was disconnected. Given the number and nature of complaints and the firm's lack of response, the BBB terminated its Accreditation.
Consumers who paid for fuel systems or other orders from the company using a credit card are encouraged to file disputes against the firm through their card issuer."

I'd encourage any one in Beloit with an interest in the fiscal responsibility of the city to watch L2 Hybrids, Beloit's current snake-oil supplier, like a hawk.

Sooner or later, the Beloit managers will no longer be put off by any hydrogen-on-demand supplier telling them, "What, you HAVEN'T hydrolized your intake oxylazer switchover combustulators? No WONDER you're not getting better mileage. But considering what a great . . . CUSTOMER . . . Beloit's been, I have a deal for you. For a mere $976.55 per unit, I can send you . . ."

That's when the Beloit managers will throw in the towel and admit that they've been had. But will they admit it to others? I don't envy their predicament at all, but I hope they have the courage to do so.

Beloit's hoping for federal stimulus money to fund its hydro-boost program? It's bad enough that you're wasting your own money on this perpetual-motion nonsense. Please don't try to stick the rest of America with your bill.
