That article sounds too good to be true. Any one here analyzes that
article and come up with a rebuttal?


With any fuel source there are pro's and con's, and I don't think we've
found a panacea just yet. Even Hydrogen, when you factor in the associated
costs of manufacturing, transportation, storage, etc. does not yet compete
with gasoline, and will not clean up the environment over night.

The biofuels group has been around for awhile. There is stuff all over
google about it. In my experience, the biggest problem with it is the cost
of converting an existing engine.
