A Sad Commentary on the Fate of Someone that Wanted to
Change the World For the Better...
Notice of Death of Stanley Meyer
While doing a search in DejaNews, I had seen a brief mention of this
from the alt.conspiracy forum. However, based on past experience with
such statements and the fact that it was a conspiracy forum, I chose
not to act on it. Later, a couple of emails repeated the claim.
Finally, Gene Mallove chose to call to see if there was any truth to
the report. Here is his email.
From: E.F. Mallove
Subject: Meyer IS dead
Date: Sunday, March 29, 1998 10:38 AM
Vortexians:
I just called the funeral home listed in the announcement of Meyer's
death. I used directory information to get the number.
The gentleman there at Evans Funeral Home confirms that Meyer had
indeed died and that there was a service there. I hope this ends
speculation about the reality of Meyer's death.

In the Dejanews posts I saw from alt.conspiracy, mention was made that
Stan had died of some kind of mysterious
food poisoning.
It is sad to see the death of anyone before their time and Stanley
Meyer made quite a splash during his years of work with water as a
fuel. We here at KeelyNet extend our condolences to his family and
friends.
No doubt, the conspiracy buffs will jump on this and blow it way out
of proportion to the reality. I can only hope they rely on history
rather than fanciful speculations stated as fact.
I last spoke with Stan at the 1997 INE conference in Denver. At that
time, he and I rode down together in the elevator and walked to the
main conference room. At that time, he seemed in good health and full
of energy.
I asked if he had driven or brought his hydrogen powered automobile,
he said no, that it would have required too much logistics to arrange.
I said that it would be great to actually have the vehicle there for
examination and demonstration by all at the conference. He said, yes,
but it was still under development.
I asked whatever happened to the spark plug he had described back in
1994, which was supposed to let anyone install these plugs in their
car so that it would also run on water. The idea being that water
vapor was injected into the cylinders, exploded by a Keely type
resonant frequency (42.8khz) and the products of that explosion burned
by a high voltage spark.
He said that was still under development. Only this year, 1998, was I
informed that this idea had been 'lifted' from Dale Pond at a 1989
conference in Switzerland and no credit given to Dale.
This has been posted before, but consider it a reality check as to
what had been accomplished as opposed to what had been claimed, in an
attempt to short circuit the inevitable conspiracy diatribes that will
arise.
