I mean dimethyl ether: DME. Unfortunately, I really doubt we are nearing a collapse in demand for oil. This technology seeks to convert the transportation industry to safe, cheap, and green hydrogen power, but bitumen derived products are used as an industrial feedstock for countless products that make modern society. This technology can reduce the CO2 emissions of extracting and distributing bitumen by 85% - >100%, while reducing the capital costs by 65% - 85%. It allows transitional oil to be produced cheaply, relatively cleanly, and in countries that don't violate human rights or fund terrorists.

just wanted to say the actual mind mapping tool the author is building has is a stylish and cozy piece of software. The wii shop music remix attached to the pricing card made me grin.

I've been helping with messaging for somebody looking for demonstration funding for an experimentally proven clean oil recovery technology and it makes me feel hopeless seeing there are so many people struggling to demonstrate potentially game changing technologies, often because people investing or allocating money have little technical competence.

for those curious: http://www.envirotechdme.com

If I could offer you some pointers:

- Separate the Youtube account you use for this technology from the one you use personally.

- Specify in nontechnical language the advantage this tech has over similar fusion technologies. (still working on this myself)

- Seek peer review and then highlight that peer review directly on your website. My intuition is that most people or departments who are capable of funding a demonstration are not capable of validating the science behind your technology.

- I would recommend writing and attaching a succinct summary of your technology distinct from your patent, and devoid of the legalese and cruft that fills up a patent.
