I understand where you are going with this and agree with current technology it costs more in terms of energy expended to manufacture hydrogen then we get of the product.

It will always take more energy to extract hydrogen from water than the useful energy we will get out of the hydrogen.

Given the geometric progression of technology, it is impossible to make a claim like this with any certainty. Besides, I didn't say this was the answer. I said "hydrogen fuel cell LIKE" power source. What I meant by that was something other then fossil based fuel.
