I'm very sceptic too about the fat-burning zone. To me it is all a matter of thermodynamics, conservation of energy.

Energy gained trough food - energy consumed = energy stored in fat. No matter what fuel is used. If you increase energy spending and hold you energy intake on the same level, fat has to be burned sooner or later, during the exercise or after.
