One thing we should also remember - one thing that helped the long post-World War II boom was cheap fuel. With the advent of a hydrogen based economy, cheap energy will be back in style. And this time the Arabs won't have a monopoly on it.

What we have here is good old fashioned competition between technologies--hydrogen vs. fish and chip oil.

You need electric power to make this hydrogen. So what are you going to burn to make it? Oil, gas, coal?
Are you hanging on hydro-electric or nukes to generate the electricty? Are you going to pave over half of New Mexico with photo-voltaic cells? Will you make it with wind turbines?
