The problem with fuel cells however is the energy chain. Electrolysis is not a good way to create hydrogen because most countries, or at least the US cannot keep up with electricity demands (at least currently) should cars and other products be switched over. The primary way hydrogen is manufactured now, if my data is still current is through natural gas. And therefore this doesn't get us away from traditional carbon issues. The potential of hydrogen is possibly good intermediate storage, or at least another vector of energy research we can pursue.
how about creating it in the care using some kind of alternator to generate the electric current needed to for the hydrolysis?
#4: TV/Internet Equipment Fees: Overblown. The break-even point on buying your own equipment is ~2-4 years of ownership, assuming you never have a problem.
modems (DSL, not DOCSIS: see below)? if not free rental it's a rippoff (new 50-70$ used 5-20$, they last years).
TV boxes? well, may be. But the thing is if you want this or that tv/cable internet provider, you need their box,
you can buy your own (except if you bought it used from an ex customer of the same company) sot they charge what ever the hell they can get away with,
especially when they control usually a very large proportion of the market.
(where I live we have mainly 2 big companies : cable (videotron) VS sat (BELL), rpices a re almost the same, the deals too).
