mchinsky Sir: First a few corrections are in order. 1. Honda's car gets 74 miles per gallon. 2. It only releases water into the environment. 3. 200 of the cars are being leased for $600.00 a month. Ms Jamie Lee Curtis leased the first one. The target audience is the Eco-Friendly Celebrities and any other wealthy person who is willing to abide by the least agreement. They decided to test them in California because California agreed to open three hydrogen fuel stations.3.It is a myth that the US is sitting on more oil then the entire Middle East Combined. By the way; I am a Conservative who doesn't believe a word that Bush and his Neo-Conservatives say. I would recommend that you read the following book: Reclaiming Conservatism -How a Great American Political Movement Got Lost- and How It Can Find Its Way Back. It is written by Mr. Mickey Edwards. He is described as a leading figure in the American conservative movement for forty years.He was a member of Congress for sixteen years and chairman of The House Republican Policy Committee. Mr. Edwards was national chairman of The American Conservative Union and one of three founding trustees of The Heritage Foundation. He has taught at Harvard and Georgetown and is now on the faculty of Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and a vice chairman of The Aspen Institute. I also recommend that you watch the documentary entitled "Crude Impact " that will inform you that we are not sitting on more oil then the entire Middle East combined. You can go on www.crudeimpact.com and see and hear the truth yourself. Finally; this is a Beta that is being tested. They know that they won't be able to make them available for the masses until the infrastructure (gasoline stations) changes. It won't be possible without the cooperation of a Futurist President and Congress that is willing to stand up to the Oil Companies. Even if The Oil Companies agree it will take a paradigm shift in the way Americans perceive the change from speed to conservation. My son works for Honda and he knows that it will take a long period of education just to convince Oil Companies to Cooperate and to get the average American Driver to give up his suvs and large luxury vans, trucks, and cars. However; Honda has since it's inception believe in experimenting with fuel efficient cars and this is just one of their projects. My son told me that the demand for their Fits and Civics is so incredible that as soon as one comes into a Honda Dealer ; it is sold immediately.

John McCain, the next president has promised several more nuclear plants; source of abundant cheap electricity (1 kg of pure fission material can supply electricity to whole of New York city for one year!!!).With cheap electricity abundance, hydrogen fuel cell powered cars will FLY ( I mean on the Road)!!!. Good bye to blackmail of the USA by certain oil producing countries... we will be energy independent. I will change my home heating system from Oil to Electricity from Nuclear plants... it will be clean, cheap and efficient ( provided the CEO's of electric companies don't become clones of greedy and blood sucking oil company CEO's of $11.00 billion dollar profit per quarter !!!

So think hard,who do you want to vote? ( Hint: Unfortunately Sen. Clinton did not get nominated, so the correct answer is John McCain)!!!

Hydrogen Power, aka electric power is no dream and will be the single biggest leap for mankind and will go down in history as the modern creation of the wheel. The final step for electric cars will be based on an organic substance that as a byproduct will produce neg. charge ions. The neg. ions will be passed through an organic matrix and this reaction will produce the needed electricity needed to not only power our cars/transportation but one day the very homes and offices we live and work in. The only thing slowing us down is greed and fear. For years we were told nuclear power is bad and is very harmful, well it like anything else if you miss uses it; it can hurt you.
