That's only 500.  I need eleventy brazilain minus that bill, whatever that adds up to.  Or subtracts down to.

I was too busy trying to figure out why half the people on those bills are hanging from the ceiling.
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

Brazil has transvestite bathrooms. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Wouldn't the latter lead to the former?

I think for those darn whippersnappers, it's the ONLY possibility.  Unless they know a guy.  Like Dave.  But Dave's not here, man.  And if he was, I bet it's that fruit, Dave Robertson ;)

how will you EXTRICATE the hydrogen from the oxygen without using more energy than you gain?  ok, PLANTS do it by photo-synthesis but I don't think you are suggesting that is how we will process our hydrogen...
But it takes less external energy (oil) to do this than all the cars using oil.


I'm pretty sure it does. that was my point...

I prefer a vehicle that doesn't hurt Mother Earth.  It's a go-cart, powered by my own sense of self-satisfaction.

  They wouldn't be building prototypes if the answer wasn't either already here or coming in the near future.

just thought about that again. the reason is called 'green-washing'

remember BP solar? was a great idea. but in the end the limited amount of research they did was purely just to make them look more environmentally responsible. once that was achieved they didn't bother much any more. job done. lots of companies do it. i myself think hybrid cars fit into this category and also hydrogen cars as they stand. if a car company was REALLY serious they would put a lot more into hydrogen production technology, rather than cars...
