Yes, that was interesting but the whole fuel cell thing is absolute bs. Free hydrogen does not exist as a viable resource. The only feasible way to produce hydrogen is from petroleum (forget solar/electrolysis, that's ridiculously expensive and inefficient). As the non-GM guys pointed out, there really is no need for that. The problem is not with the fuel cell technology (though that is a huge hurdle), it's the fact that a hydrogen resource doesn't exist and even if it did, the storage and transport hurdles may be insurmountable (hydrogen won't stay in tanks and pipes made of earthly materials).
