I don't even understand why we even need all that petroleum based stuff when their is so many available sources of CLEAN energy. And the problem with this fuel-cell technology is it takes energy to get the hydrogen, so it's not so pure as it's made out to be.Quote from Doubter:
If the entire world switched to hy-brid vehicles we would be back to this point in 6 years.
However we need to do both.
There is 3 times as much oil in the Rocky Mountain oil shale fields as there ever was under Saudi Arabia but up to now it took $80/ per barrel to make it feasible. But with new technology that is coming down. We absolutely need both as well as nuclear.
Sorry getting OT here... I'll refrain.. this is just important to me though.
