Hydrogen Cars Within Grasp, Roll Today

Examine the video found at US Department of Energy ii to see a vehicle that can run exclusively on water. Hydrogen Technologies modified a 1994 Ford Escort to run about 100 miles on 4 ounces of water. Ford and GM must begin building new cars and conversion kits for vehicles to do these things. This should be regulated by the state. By 2008, 15% of all cars must run at least partially on hydrogen, ideally from water.

Vehicle conversion companies should form and provide low cost fuel conversions for vehicles, especially in California, the West Coast, and the Northeast, and certain other markets.

Who Killed The Electric Car?

This is a fine question. The better question, though, is who killed Stanley Meyer's water splitter? Yes, there is $100 trillion to be made on oil in the earth's crust... or more... but that same amount of money is going up against >100% efficiency mechanics.

Examine www.byronwine.com.

It apparently is about getting people to do $100 trillion of work. I think they'd do it anyway, but I do not look forward to the consequences of the peak of oil or the technological stagnation afterwards, nor environmental effects, nor ongoing health consequnces. I also think that $100T of work could be done in 3-5 years by an economy escalating through hydrogenization with abovementioned technologies, and in a matter of months by a well equipped hydrogenized world [2006$].

Big Dig Boston

I am fairly disappointed with the Big Dig project. Cement is strongest when within 1/4" of a supporting structure. Instead of putting rebar every foot or so, placing a 1/2" wire mesh would be a good way to improve construction concrete strength. It could even be a 3D 1/2" cube
mesh. This material has a strength of 550kg/cm. A one foot section of www.ferrocement.com will hold up over 35 tons.

I am surprised that the Big Dig cost $14 billion. I would have used that 14 billion to fund a fleet of hydrogen-powered mass transit lines to drive around Boston and the surrounding metropolitan region to reduce traffic. There are options other than major highways to solve the
traffic problems. A telecommuting initiative or an internet delivery foundation with regulating features would have reduced traffic. A crowded highway is a liability. A properly functioning communication transit and delivery system that makes minimal use of roadways is more
valuable than high capacity highways for reasons like this and others.
