I watched a show on Discovery or one of the science type channels about the future of hydrogen powered autos. It all sounded great about the lower emmisons and all till they described how our homes would have a hydrogen generator for you to fuel up your car overnight with hydrogen made form guess what, Natural Gas. So what is this doing to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels? Plus the latest guess on the cost to produce a hydrogen powered car was like 100K per car. We have gone a long way with wind turbines, and we are basicly ignoring the geothermal potential that is under places like Yellowstone that have enough free non poluting heat energy to serve us for years to come, but do we dare cross the path of a tree hugger or bunny hugger to get this free energy? Isn't it time we ignore these wackos and get going with something that makes sense for a change? I don't know if trucks and farm equipment could be battery powered off the grid with the free geothermal or free wind power, but if just the autos and pickups were we could cut oil use by a bunch. Sorry if I ruffled any "Green Feathers", but I too am tired of all the BS about we don't dare cut a tree or spoil the nest of an owl or something to benefit our own well being. Frank.
