    A fuel cell is powerful. It can convert energy into electricity with very high efficiencies without combustion, flame, noise or vibration.

    Yes, but is it really a suitable replacement for gasoline? Even if we lay aside hydrogen fires during car crashes, how would we keep the hydrogen from escaping?

    What my alter-ego is saying is that we might still end up having lots of wars over resources, but we'd be having them over platinum mines instead of oil wells. Still, we should give it a go. The Middle East deserves a break.
