I took a quick look at the site. Mr. Weaver and company seem to have assumed "the answer" is hydrogen fuel cells. While I tend to agree, I'm not willing to wait the five-to-forty years it might take for us to get there. It might be interesting to see if they'd like some pure EVs on this trek. Maybe an EV1, EV+, or some long range conversions. Does anyone know of a conversion that can do 100+ mpc at highway speeds? Wouldn't it be a hoot if they let us in and the pure EVs were more dependable than the FCVs? Chris
