Georgetown Ky Toyota Plant
Source: Toyota Tells Camry Plant Employees to Cut Costs — Now | TheDetroitBureau.com
Employees at Toyota’s largest plant in North America were just delivered a message from Japan: cut costs or lose jobs.I've taken two tours of this plant and it is 'Disneyland for Engineers.' I hope they get the problem(s) resolved.
The company’s plant in Georgetown, Kentucky, produces the Camry, which is the best-selling sedan in the U.S., was told in a video from the company’s plant manager that currently it is cheaper for Toyota to build the Camry in Japan and ship it to Kentucky than it is to simply build it in Kentucky.

Industrial hydrogen
Source: Green Car Congress: UC Santa Barbara team develops catalytic molten metals for direct conversion of methane to hydrogen without forming CO2
In their study, the UCSB researchers prepared liquid alloys of active metals in low–melting-temperature metal “solvents” (Sn, Pb, Bi, In, and Ga) using known equilibrium phase behavior to produce catalysts that melt at <1000°C. The melts are used in molten-metal bubble columns, where carbon continuously floats to the surface where it can be removed.
The carbon produced—mostly graphite—accumulated as a fine powder at the top surface of the melt.
In addition to the problems of high-pressure hydrogen, a hard problem, steam reformulation of methane generates CO{2} and consumes water. This process eliminates the water and generates carbon in a form that can easily be sequestered.

Ex-semi driver has questions about Tesla Semi
Like, why aren't there outside mirrors? How about windows that roll all the way down? How fast can it stop? Are you sure it can't jackknife?
He raises some good questions about practicality and the laws of physics.
