Congress better hurry the heck up and pass "anti hydrogen gouging" laws NOW!

This sounds like a promising breakthrough. I hope the oil producing nations are crapping their pants.

OK, hydrogen will be cheap. Now all we have to decide is what we will do when they pass out buckets of free hydrogen.

What the Libs always forget in their dreamy love-affair with "Clean", "Cheap" Hydrogen is that its not a zero-sum game. You still must provide an energy source for the electrolysis of water to make Hydrogen. Coal would fit the bill but they hate that because of both the 'pollution' in acquiring it and burning it.
Might I suggest Nuclear Power.

A couple of weeks ago, President Bush said that the US was on the edge of several energy breakthroughs. I wonder if this is what he was talking about.

Don't worry I'm sure we'll see a 'drop' in the price of oil soon.

Might I suggest Nuclear PowerYou might - and I would gladly second the motion! Nuclear energy is our only solution to our long term energy problems.
In the far future we'll run out of petroleum, we'll run out of coal but we'll never run out of atoms!

The sun is an abundant source of electricity for electrolysing water. But I am not suggesting we set up solar panels in Seattle.

Except it was the shiny aluminum oxide coating on the Zeppelin that doomed the Hindenburg. The nice-looking stuff that they used to "paint" the outer skin... was thermite.

It won't be $3.00 when the Governments (Federal & State) start taxing it.

Might I suggest Nuclear Power. Too little too late. It takes years for nuke plants to come online.
To: ozoneliar
You're d--- Skippy right on that one. The reason oil is $60 a barrel, is because we have to pay that. Take the gun away from our temple, and we are good to go.
We have cost improvement from $8 to $3 a gallon on H-fuel. The next fold on that would be an improvement from $3 to about $1.11. The key question here is how long of an interval was required between the $8 H-fuel and the $3 H-fuel?

My idea (which I've been posting about for years here) is to use surf generators to both provide the water (the ocean) and make the electricity (beaches + floats + rods + cam + turbine + generator = electricity) to seperate the H from the 02.. I like the nuke idea as well.
