Hi tippet,

Though the current research and prototypes might suggest that fuel cells will forever be dependent upon fossil fuels for their primary source of energy, I think that, ultimately, the fuel cell will come into its own primary usage only after someone eventually figures out how to convert solar energy (or any other renewable energy source) into an economically viable cell. Call it a perpetual energy source, only for lack of a better phrase...

The research work that is being put into fuel cells today will provide the basis for the fuel cell of tomorrow. Unfortunately, not many (if any) of us alive today will live long enough to see the eventual fruits of today's labor. Much work remains, not the least of which is even further reducing the size of today's fuel cell to micro-miniatures for tomorrow's world. But I have no doubt that someday it will happen, just likely not in my lifetime. <g>
