Del, from what I recall, our hydrogen storage tank would provide a driving range of 300 miles, with the potential to improve upon that range with further development. Our hydride storage tank (canister) would be about the same size and weight as a normal gasoline tank. On that basis, it doesn't sound like Ford is presently using our technology. I'm sure you will recall this data from past announcements. It sounds like they are using the newly developed technology whereby they can compress hydrogen much more effectively than the older hydrogen gas storage system, thereby extending the driving range to 150 miles. That doesn't mean that they will not ultimately use our hydrogen storage system. I am totally convinced they will become an ECD customer purely for economic and safety reasons. And, I further believe that safety will be the major issue. Regards.
