The people who think H2 will "solve" our energy problems don't understand that it takes more energy to produce H2 than is released when it is burned or used in a fuel cell.

Frustration (pulling hair out) You really don't get it.

Look up "Pumped Storage" and tell me how electric utilities are so stupid for building them. But every utility that doesn't have one wishes they did.

I don't give a rat's ass what uninformed people think. The economics will drive the decision, and neither you or I nor anyone else knows enough at this time to rule H2 out or to declare it to be the future.

Yeah, 50 or 100 years from now it'll make sense. Lets continue this discussion then.

Pumped storage, like H2 only makes sense when you're got extra energy to play with. If you've got enough extra then all sorts of storage schemes will make sense. Of course at that point we won't have an energy "problem".
