It must be so hard going through life a technology and science ignoramus. Poor lying and libeling PartyTime to stupid to know how ignorant it is.

A weather balloon takes 10 to 25 cubic feet to be inflated. 3' or 4' diameter. A diving tank that costs about 500 bucks can hold 72 cubic feet.

So you believe someone would buy a tractor trailer and transport tons of production equipment and all the production feed stocks needed to make hydrogen instead of going to a refinery and setting up a simple process to extract hydrogen from natural gas and fill very inexpensive pressure tanks. Natural gas that is burned off as waste.
One would not use high pressure tanks. Not diving tanks but tanks costing maybe 100 to 1000 times less than a trailer.

What is more portable, a tractor trailer or tanks of compressed gas.

And if one takes this trailer someplace, how long does it take to set it up before it produces is 1st cubic foot of hydrogen and what is the production rate in cubic feet per hour.

If you read this, can you comprehend how stupid the hydrogen suggestion is. And it also shows that someone at the guardian likely spoke to the janitor at some Bristish facility for his technical insights.

And lying and libeling PartyTime is swallowing whatever stupidity that makes it feel good about it's hatred of a very good man.
