Jed, who are you replying to with this? You quoted my text, and replied to that, and then below that you replied to Thomas Malloy where he had replied to me. You didn't specify exactly who you were responding to at what point. As far as the H2O vapor thing I mentioned, I have heard this suggested by local environmental groups, that H2O emissions must be controlled if we start using hydrogen cars. Which is in my opinion, ridiculous. If the above was directed at me, please let me point out that I am not spreading rumors about environmentalists, though it seems likely that some (not all) environmentalists are spreading rumors themselves. And just for everyone's information, I -am- and environmentalist, just not an extremist. It may not be much, but I am trying to do my part in all this, namely, having boosted the insulation in my home and added vapor barriers to all windows. Amazing what it did for my heating bills, very much reduced, I would say 35-40% less. Most lights in my home are fluorescent, and they do not stay on unless needed. Some of this philosophy is rubbing off on people I know well, so I am trying. --Kyle
