Snow, thanks for that article. During my farming days in West Texas, I clearly remember when that fuel cell "breakthrough" was announced by Allis Chalmers. We were utilizing propane and butane to fuel our tractors and pump engines, as well as NG on the pump engines, so it was of particular interest to the farmers in that region. The frequent mentions of fuel cells recently have tempted me to mention that in order to illustrate how far back it has been in development w/o coming to practical usage, even though it was touted to be the best thing since they invented the rope<g>.

I appreciate this memory stimulant very much.
