Praise Hydrogen And Hide The SUV

Our Congress at work :banghead:

Tampa Tribune Opinion Page

Published: Apr 29, 2006

"After criticizing high gasoline prices Thursday, several members of Congress, including House Speaker Dennis Hastert of Illinois, drove away from a news conference in small hydrogen-powered cars. A few blocks away, they switched to their own big, low-mileage vehicles, including a Yukon and an eight-cylinder Explorer. < Hastert, shown here in the center, is getting ready to climb aboard his Suburban.> Then off they went, still blowing smoke."

1. Hydrogen is actually worse than using gasoline.

In fact, it's about 1.5 times worse. Hydrogen is very energy intensive to generate. It is not useful for burning. That's why Bush likes it.

Don't believe the hype.
