To: Dr. Thorne
How does stripping hydrocarbon fuels of their hydrogen to make the hydrogen fuel, make this a “Zero fossil fuels” and “Zero C02” vehicle, since one of he massive reactions to making the fuel is CO2? And the base requirement to make the fuel is Oil or Natural Gas.

Oh, and what do we do with the “leftovers”? We are therefore wasting the energy that Oil offers, spending more energy to break down the oil to make just a fraction of the energy that barrel of oil produces.

In other words, Pixy Dust Technology, cutting our noses off to spite our face.
