i was talking

of hydrogen. i have no knowledge of other types of fuel cells... really none of the hydrogen either except i read that it takes more energy to produce it than it contains.

sure we do need to conserve. that is why i own five diesel vehicles. fortunately for the environment i can only drive one at a time.

our government has a law now that exempts trucks over a certain weight from mileage and emission requirements (now i am not on solid ground but i am close). it was intended to allow businesses with delivery trucks some leeway but the way it was written it has encouraged people to buy those ridiculous hummers that get 6 mpg. sheer lunacy!
