Somewhat flawed analysis; there is no big money being spent anymore replacing older tanks, that law was passed 10 years ago and gasoline stations have been making the changes over the last 10 years. The deadline has passed. Some small privately owned stations have received a temporary reprieve, but for the most part the deed is done. The infrastructure argument doesnt hold up because hydrogen powered vehicles are going to refuel in the privacy of their own garages. Seriously, how many readers of this message drive more than 200 miles per day? And let's say you were going to drive more than 200 miles that day, aren't you going to be on a major highway? As long as there is a place to refuel every 40 or 50 miles or so on the major highways, refueling for longer trips isn't going to be an issue imvho.

" Gas and ICEs will still be around for a long time." Good morning Mike. I found this part of your post a bit interesting , especially since the news broadcast about global warming I was subjected to a couple of nights ago. The jist of the report was that within 50 years and with little differing results due to anything we do here on earth the globe is going to warm up by about 7degrees. The speaker also stated that this amount of an increase in temp may make the existence of life on most parts of the planet impossible. We can do whatever we want but IMO it won't matter. Greed and envy and the inability for us humans to recognize the many intangable but dangerous changes and events we are creating will be our downfall. There is one solution and that is population control. I think this is going to happen naturally. Scott
