Talk about energy independence! I missed
this story last week, so forgive me if you've already caught it. Seems an MIT researcher has developed a new, extremely efficient process whereby solar power is used to split water into hydrogen molecules (h2) and oxygen atoms, which are then stored for later use in a hydrogen fuel cell. It's simple and non-toxic. Solar panels on your roof take care of business and we are all off the grid. If it pans out this could be the greatest scientific breakthrough of our lifetime.
Not since fear was shown to me in a handful of dust has the prospect of so much from so little amazed me....
