    I guess they're still floating around out there. I was behind one of the Equinox FC vehicles getting on to the Garden State Parkway. Once he hit the road, he took off like a scalded cat.

    (sigh) It isn't easy for GM (pre and post bankrupt) to worsen efficiency of their product line ... but they're still working hard at it ... making sure every tax dollar they spend on 'research' gets wasted.

    Does anybody know what is happening to Honda's fuel cell project? I believe with the car they are supplying you with some kind of gizmo that makes the hydrogen and also will power your house. When I reado about it along time ago it sounded great, but then I don't know if there's a hidden downside.

    Thanks for the link, Hill. That's a fairly decent article.

    I think it is well known that hydrogen is currently not an efficient source of energy. Maybe someday it will be. But wasn't hydrogen's claim to fame all about tailpipe emissions? How did that get lost in the conversation?
