Gasoline wins easily, but the kicker is that it takes energy to reform the gasoline to get the hydrogen from it to use in fuel cells.

The patent for Ballard Power Systems' fuel cell uses gasoline directly. This is the technology that Ford and Daimler are looking into.

How many times am I going have to prove you wrong?

Dear del to several on this thread I brought up CFLs that are 4 times as efficient. Other vacant minded lefty loons said they did not like fluorescent light and thus passed. If 4 times the efficiency can't get vacant liberal minded lefty loon who are also of the extreme environmental wakko persuasion like you to switch, what make you think any normal folks will ever care. Are you against Honda's new hybrid?
By the way I think gas would have to be 5.00 bucks a gallon for that car to ever make up the difference in the extra cost.
