i have looked at about half a dozen biofuels investments. the companies never grasp the scale of the fuel industry. you'd think that a rational person would spend 15 minutes looking at the ethanol organized crime syndicate, in which our FedGov is a major co-conspirator, and would conclude that this is madness.

Jerry Woodall, from Purdue, gave a talk at SNS's FiRe conference in San Diego about this process http://news.uns.purdue.edu/x/2007a/070515WoodallHydrogen.html. As many others have said, essentially, aluminum is a not-bad way to store electricity which can later be used to crack water. I agree with what others have said, that fuel cells are not a particularly good solution for transportation, but if we're ever going to do fuel cells, this aluminum dodge is the best trick i've seen for carting around the means to produce hydrogen.

There's a digg plug-in for wordpress. http://digg.com/software/Digg_Button_Plug_In_For_Wordpress Here's a plugin that does slashdot, digg, and a whole bunch of others. http://blog.econsultant.com/wordpress-plugin-slashdigglicious-add-button-for-slashdot-digg-reddit-delicious-facebook-google A wordpress blog can look anyway you want. But perhaps you are talking about Wordpress's hosted solution. You might be right about that, i know they host, but i haven't hosted one there myself.
