Thanks for the post. Have been following the development of fuel cells cars for several years. Appreciate any news.

The cost of the car will be another story, but I do think that we have to do something to break our dependence on foreign oil. Hey! I've got an idea, where's that oil in Alaska?

For the consumer this will shift the cost of gas from the gas station to the electric bill.

They are correct about the fuel infrastructure. What about those of us who drive more than 240 miles a day? Fuel cells will not work unless I can get a 600 dollar speeding ticket for diving 180 on the highway with these cars.

I'll make a prediction. Fuel cells won't get more than 1% of the future auto market. Oil burning cars will last 50-100 years as the dominant transportation system.

There are two big lies I've heard now since I was a kid in the late 70's.. "We'll run out of oil" is the big one.

Don't you have to put oil in all those fuel cells? :-)
