This guy doesn't even have a company ...how could I have an agenda... Don't get me wrong First hybrid then fuel cells will be the future... But In theory this application could work ...that's all I was saying.

Scott; I agree they will change the world, and in the 30-50 years I foresee. Lets face it the cars we now run have a lifetime of ten years, and so even if we change at 10% per year it will take 10 years and that assumes we will never buy another gas car from today. In fact we will only have 2-4% in the next 4-5 years, and an slow ramp up from there. So the 30-50 years is very realistic for them to reach around 50%(a big impact). What wild agenda am I promoting? Heating and colling are valid concerns, as are catalyst and membrane lifestimes on fuel cells. In fact they are the main research areas now, how to get more life from the membranes and catalysts, how to use less catalysts, how to get a higher energy density per unit area of membrane. Read about it, it is true. Bill

I agree with you Scott, there are too many confused bearish experts here. Perhaps they can't afford Ballard. Maybe they should be sending their messages to Ford and Daimler, as to how misguided these multi-billion dollar companies are in believing in Ballard's fuel cell. I'm here to make money, maybe Ford and Daimler will turn out to be wrong, at least they've put their money where they're mouths are. Judging from the small short position on Ballard, these bearish experts have obviously not done the same, put up or...... Jan
