    Well...I read the chemistry world article and found it, at least, interesting. I have LONG thought that hydrogen is a far better solution to cheap energy than an electric power source. There are so many faults with electric cars that it's pitiful. But, with GE and other large electric corps having the G in their pocket, it will be hard to beat them. The G, after all, can make any laws they want to steer their agenda.

    Here's one fault with electric tupperware throwaways:

    http://www.evsroll.com/Electric_Car_Battery_Cost.html

    There has to be a way to stop this shortening of planned obsolescence.

    Who in their right mind will replace these expensive batteries when they trade it in, or after their normal 5 to 7 year lifespan? Even if they figure how to make them 10% cheaper, inflation will eat that up, if not a change in battery format. Figure on $8,000 to $20,000 for fresh batteries, depending on how much Horsepower the electric motor comes with.

    Pretty sick system.

    At least with Pee, you could change the passenger seat to a cooler and drink water or non-alcoholic beer, and 'fill her up'!

    P Power :biglaugh:even sounds funny. So how do you get it in the tank??? While it is easier for some...I'm thinking the current system might be a little tricky for others :rofl:
    I wonder...will there be PP pull offs along the highway so one can fill their tank in private? :rofl2:
    Tour buses would really want to make sure they have a full load so to speak...puts a whole new spin of a pee stop :rofl:
    OH big rig drivers...now that could be a bit demanding...good luck with that guys :29:

    Since half the population is female I'm thinkin maybe 3/4 th of the population would need a step stool. :drink:

    I've heard of putting a tiger in your tank, but this is a whole different story!

    I am laughing SO hard at all this!! I know first hand the cooking oil used in diesel engines makes the exhaust smell like what was cooked in the oil. Think about it .. fried chicken joint fuel smelled like Colonel Sanders Breath..
    I wonder if the exhaust off of this would smell like downtown Chicago?
