...or anybody else?

It was an expose on hydrogen fuel cells, and it looks very promising. Initially it would still be polluting, because the easiest way to get hydrogen is from natural gas, but they interviewed a scientist whose studying how photosynthesis works, in an effort to one day replicate what leaves do in extracting hydrogen from oxygen in water, then it would truly become a limitless energy source.

They even had a Hyundai SUV that ran on just hydrogen fuel cells. I had no idea that this technology was this mature. I was sure this would be at least 10 years away before prototypes started to come out.

All we need is the infrastructure in place (hydrogen plants, hydro pumps at gas stations, etc), which may be a tall orderl, considering the chicken and egg syndrome that's hampering the Hi Def TV market now.
