Here Comes The Sun

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.
