Hydrogen economy? Not likely...

The big talk about town lately has been the emergence of an economy based not on oil but on hydrogen. Scientists, economists and politicians all hype it up as the "solution to foriegn oil". Well thats great and wonderful but the majority of engineers out there know that the technical problems with hydrogen are not going to be overcome anytime soon.

Heres a quick and easy article based on a book written by a couple swiss guys knocking hydrogen technology down a peg. Its not very technical and can be understood by pretty much anyone. I really hope most of these hurdles can be overcome because fossil fuels are pretty much killing our planet and is the cause of most of the strife world wide at this point.
