"how are they doing in building reformers that can
produce cool clean hydrogen from natural gas or methanol?"

• Is this a problem..is it easier to reform the fuel for low temperature Alkaline fuel cells such as Astris Energi or Zevco are using?

Help?

• does any one know of a source of information re Hydrogen fuel cell efficiencies and emissions which account for the whole process from production and distribution of the NG, Methanol or ethanol through the reforming process and the fuel cell energy conversion?

Geez, Stephen, if you knew anything about BLD you would know the answer to that question, wouldn't you? I always find it amazing that those who are short often don't have a grasp on the most basic info.

For those who care, when BLD teamed up with Daimler one part of the deal was that Daimler roll all of it's fuel cell expertise into the "Alliance" and not pursue fuel cell activities with others. The same provision was made with Ford's participation in the Alliance.

If you can prove me wrong, Stephen, please do so.

If either you or David B. can provide ANY evidence, other than a press release, why any BLD shareholder should in the least way be concerned about the activities of Plug Power, PLEASE DO SO.

In closing, Stephen, I have to say that I have found very little in your postings to be of value here. I have yet to see any real information presented other than scare tactics.

BTW, BLD has had expertise in methanol steam reforming for years and anyone who really follows BLD would know that wouldn't they?

Warmest regards
