Free Spirit: How young are you? Lots of folks 'claim' to have 300mpg engines that were 'stolen' by 'big oil'. These same folks are always looking out for Black Helicopters :-) As for your alternatives: Hydro - kills fish, prevents spawning - major environmental groups looking to dismantle dams. Wind - kills birds - wind farms have been sued by environmentalists. As to Helium - its much rarer than Hydrogen. Thats like saying we can make gold (out of platinum :-) As to a hydrogen economy - the best alternative I have seen to bridge the distribution gap is a plan to make hydrogen from gasoline. Portable machines could be installed at existing stations. Extremely low polution numbers and a reasonable bridge - but it assumes we can build an efficient long term method to produce and distribute hydrogen. But lots not mandate it and wind up burning coal to power hydrogen plants. John
