It's not a difficult concept to accept, really.

As a matter of fact, I can't find the link my 'marks right now, but there is a guy that has a H2 powered Civic as his DD, and uses hydrogen storage in some rather large tanks with electrolyzers to make H2 and store it, then recombine it with water later on to make electricity, or pump some off to fill up his car. His main power source is solar and wind, the H2 is to store excess energy, as he's completely off-grid. It's more efficient than batteries, for sure, and is also multipurpose, in that it fuels his car as well.

Uh, yeah. Nobody has claimed that you can't use electricity to extract hydrogen from water, or that hydrogen doesn't burn. Kind of irrelevant to the "run your car on water" folks though. What you're talking about isn't what they're talking about. So as Frank Lee says, it pretty much is that simple.
