I wouldn't have to have a diesel powered laptop. The diesel-electric power unit pulling the train can supply the electric power. BTW where can I Buy a ballard fuel cell to power my laptop? OH they don't have any for sale yet. When will they be available? OH maybe in the next century. How much? OH that costs more than my $400 Laptop. >>>Doesnt the ballard fuel cell have a lot more possible applications than a diesel engine? Hmmm lets see a diesel powered lap top computer, well that might not be a bad idea really....no one would be looking over your shoulder on the bus or plane or train to see what your doing .....because of course they couldnt stand the exhaust.<<< Oh that Voodoo Magic?? >>>><<<A FC power plant has a lot of plumbing to deal with connecting all the individual fuel cells up. And as they get larger they get more complicated.>>> Automation? >>>>>> Why not? Why depend on some other companies to make promises on rolling out out fuel cell cars in the next century if ever when you can do it inhouse and establish a powerhouse company in Fuel Cells. You can purpose build the vehicle to house the Fuel Cell instead of retrofitting an IC based vehicle. Golf Carts for the aging population of golfers is a good business too. OK, So VW only has 5.53M Shares Outstanding. Then 1 VW ($163) share for 2 Ballard shares then. Then Ballard can have a market cap approaching the largest automakers. Toyota - $96 Billion Ford - $74B GM - $45B Honda - $33B ??/<<<Ballard should takeover Volkswagen and get into the Auto Biz. Cheap FC powered Beetles made in Mexico. 1 Ballard share for 4 VW share.>>> I hope this is a joke because to me it doesnt really demonstrate an in depth knowledge of mergers and acquisitions.???
