It never ceases to amaze me how careful the media always are to avoid
any mention of the source of that wonderful hydrogen fuel, or of the
energy required to separate it from water, or whatever. Like
electric cars, I see the whole thing as nothing but yet another
attempt to further satisfy corporate greed, while ignoring the
fundamental problem. That problem is simply that it takes enormous
amounts of energy to travel around in automobiles. (You can pedal
your bike 1,500 miles on the energy in a gallon of gasoline.)
Whether that energy ultimately comes from gasoline, hydrogen,
electricity, or corn oil, it has to come from SOMEWHERE.
Unfortunately, the amount of money spent on auto transportation makes
it unlikely government, and certainly business, will support energy
efficient transportation and lifestyles.
