    I didn't think Jack gave a damn.

    There were a few small innovative energy companies here in British Columbia BC doing research on hydrogen fuels. They have received some government subsidies for research and development. Unfortunately due to the intensive and resource-consuming process of hydrogen diffusion, hydrogen production is still not very cost-effective. Petroleum is still the cheaper solution compared to high-tech environmental energy for cars. The only chance we may see accelerated growth in the hydrogen fuel industry is when gas prices hit $8.50 a gallon. That's approximately how much it costs to produce an equivalent unit of hydrogen energy at the moment.

      Or some other source of clean energy that can be used to get the H2 from the O. Wind/solar to generate the power to 'make' the Hydrogen and take fossil fuels out of the equation...Still a LOOOOOOONNNNGGG way away from that I am afraid..BTW I work for a wind turbine company.
