My thoughts as well ;-)

Yep, is good, but it turned out more expensive than thought, that's why the wait.GM Have hydrogen powered cars in California and a number of fuel stations to go with it as a test of concept.Sadly oil dropped to below $60 a barrel this week, so Hydrogen is not economically attractive again, damn.In '78 there was a fake oil crisis. There was also a denim shortage, jeans prices went through the roof. Denim is made of cotton, how dumb is the public?

actually it was easy to put down, the oil companies with their comfortable relationship with the car companies have continually put down hybrid, electric, and hydrogen cars, as well as alternate energy sources. they have held us back to continue their record breaking profits each year as the HALT the progress that is necessary for our survival

I wonder why Jack hasn't pushed this anymore? Has he? I mean, don't get me wrong but there are some things I just have no way to know. So if anyone has any info reply to this simple statement.

... green cars in 1970-something... and yet we're still pumping out gas-guzeling Hummers for urbanites... WHY?????? We all know why... but it still sucks... GO GREEN DANG IT!!!!!!

or after. if you look up team microjoule and the shell eco marathon, you'll find that in 2006 that team won a race for MPG and got over 10,000 miles per gallon on gas. Another team got over 11,600 miles per gallon on Hydrogen. ECD Ovonics developed batteries that would let your car have a 1000 mile range, but Cheveron now owns that company. don't worry, they've stopped working on that battery technology now.

The technology will not come out because the oil companies have the car industry on lock down. Yeah they might give us a break on prices every now and then but we can't determine those prices until we get them off our backs. Any technology that comes out gets bought up by the oil giants before its patented.

The ideas were out there, but the engaged management was not. We pay and they pay the price! The Middle East would be a different place right now if we had explored this technology. We had a fuel crisis in 1974 but did not heed the warnings. So now the whole world pays for their stupidity! Jack
