To All: I have not found a progress report for the CTA bus experiment. Has anyone received any new info? Both ERC and BLDPF have great potentials, but it will take time to market the technology. It is hard to be patient when one is invested and is experiencing gain or losses.

Mad: I absolutely agree that the fuel cell market sector "waters" are certainly getting roiled these days, what with all the players now popping up. Most have always been there, just not "discovered" because, until the recent series of media hype event's surrounding BLDPF which unfolded over this past year, fuel cell technology wasn't exactly the "darling" of Wall Street, eh? As such, I cannot claim any special talents on selecting BLDPF early on, just was following my "gut" as it relates to d.d. of this burgeoning market sector called alternative energy generation/storage in light of the generally accepted hypothesis that thing's here on 'ol Mother Earth are gonna get worse, environmentally speaking, before they get better if the collective "WE" don't start making rational, logic decisions that are long term based rather than the usual myopia of quarter to quarter. So I got lucky with my choice, heh! So much for my podium speak this Sunday morning. Basically I agree there are a fair number of players. So, to spread the speculative coin aroun a bit, one could look at the likes of a ERC, or other's. Indeed, tangential play's on this market sector would be to look into companies trying to develope easier hydrogen "cracking" technologies, not to mention power transportation technologies(AMSC comes to mind) or high capacitive needs as supported by such as MXWL. Bottom Line? There are lot's of companies out there on the "bleeding edge," developing all kind's of interesting technologies. Good luck on your decisions. Regards! John~
