All energy conversion has a waste factor. Look I'm not an engineer in this field. I don't know if you are but I believe Sonoros had some numbers on this.I'm researching and will pm you.

Meantime the science news on this, that I have read, clearly shows there is a net energy loss, not to mention serious and costly technical issues. Hydrogen car technology is possible but not easy and certainly will take more than a few months to put into place.

Cutting the ban on offshore drilling could happen now and whether we actually punch holes in the sea floor, or the fact that we are willing to do so, would cut the commoditiy speculators off at the knees.

Look at Norway. Possibly one of the most ecologically conservative countries in the world. Virtually all their oil comes from the sea floor. And to put a cherry on top, that little nation is the world's third largest exporter of oil.
This according to a recent publication by Newt Gingrich

Trillions of barrels of oil and NG off our coasts and we won't touch it because of a Congressional moratorium. The US is the only country in the world that so dramatically limits the exploration and developement of its offshore oil and gas deposits. You can blame it on President George Bush if you want to, but he is not against it.

Who is? The same people who want you burning corn instead of feeding it to your kids.

And of course, the Oil Cartels
