Americans guzzle 65 billion gallons of fuel a year and lately we have been paying a pretty penny at the pump. NewsChannel 4 has done reports in the past on how to get the most out of your gas. Now we introduce you to a new way to save on those gasoline dollars.

There is a man who fills up his tank once every two months. One tank of gas, literally, lasts him two months. He is freezing the price of gas by freezing something else.

People complain about the price of gas and we are all spending dearly to stay on the road these days. The money we spend on gas seems to burn up faster than the fuel...........

Let me be the first to call BS on this one.

I have a bit of experience with cryogenic relaxation in rifle barrels. Whenever you machine a part out of metal, you create interior stresses. When the temperature changes, especially unevenly, the relationship between the interior stresses changes, and they can pull the part into a slightly different shape. In rifle barrels, this tends to cause shot stringing: as the barrel heats up, it bends (or unbends) almost imperceptibly in one direction or another--not really enough to measure, but enough to throw a bullet an inch or so off at 100 yards. Cryogenic relaxation eliminates those stresses, so that when the barrel gets hot it just expands; it doesn't bend.

I can imagine that cryogenic relaxation might improve things a little for an auto engine, but more than doubling the gas mileage is beyond anything I can imagine. The sort of rifles for which cryogenic relaxation is effective must shoot well both cold and hot (big-bore hunting rifles rarely fire more than one or two shots a day, so hot operation isn't as important to them); an auto engine consumes almost all of its fuel while it's hot. However distorted the parts are by the heat, they're going to wear themselves quickly to mate; that's how engines are designed. Once they're mated, the effect of cryogenic relaxation is gone. They won't mate quite as well when they're cold, but they don't stay cold very long: that's what cooling-system thermostats are for.

Completely aside from oil-company conspiracy nonsense, I say this story is full of it.

Thanks for the shaving link - I got some cryo-blades for Mrs.L and me.
