< Listen, I have three engineering degrees, I thought I was helping you out. It just amazes me how people like YOU make up stuff and then get upset when your called on it. >

I don't know what area your engineering degrees are in, but I hope they don't depend on your understanding of hydrogen.

< Hydrogen would have to be compressed and refrigerated for transportation. >

Actually compressed OR refrigerated. Liquefied is probably what you mean. Refrigeration wouldn't do squat for storing the hydrogen under pressure until it liquefies at -252C (at 1 atmosphere). Apparently you don't know about the safe, ambient temperature, solid state storage of hydrogen in metal hydrides. More hydrogen is stored in these hydrides, per volume, than is stored in liquid hydrogen. Why did you not mention this?

< Algae? You would run the US economy on algae?!? You'd have better luck with those windmills. Hey how about "cold fusion"? Was that you? >

Who said that I would run the US economy on algae? That was part of a reply to you where you incorrectly stated that hydrogen doesn't exist in a free state. The article that I cited showed where free hydrogen exists in the Earth's mantle. It also outgasses from coal mines. It also is produced by the certain algae. Why are you distort my statements? Because I caught you spouting off about a subject about which you are poorly informed?

More later.
