--To top it off, while the car may be pollution free, the making of the hydrogen takes more energy than it provides in the car. And it ain't cheap.-- Steve, it is cheap when you and I are paying to s

I think the common wisdom is now that the silver nitrate (could have the exact compound wrong) in the fabric covering of the Hindenberg was what caused the fire and not the Hydrogen. Scott Hutchinson

As long as it takes oil to process whatever is done and it takes more oil energy than is gained by the process, it is foolish. The only energy source that is viable at this time is nuclear and that e

I'm with you. If the French can do it, we can do it easily. Use coal and nuclear to make electricity for electric cars to work in the city. Eventually they will get good enough to go long distances.
