I can not remember for the life of me, since it's been a life time, what are the two metals used in the seperation of hydrogen and oxygen from water? and which metal is the positive?

Me pa, who taught high school chemistry for 30-odd years, sez that you don't need two different metals. Copper will do for both, as long as one is positive and one negative.

*wonders if Ritten's building a rocket ship to flee the Earth* Do you know of some impending doom the rest of us haven't heard about? :-)

Either that, or he intends to bring said doom upon us, by electrolysing the world's oceans! Curse you, Ritten, your diabolical plan will fail!
