I see many good posts provided by those working the fields of science. While some consider them closed minded, I think not.
It is the educated that provide the equations, and the quantitative information. I do not think that education stifles creativity, it mere provides tools help sort out workable ideas. The numbers can be run to easily prove that an electric car is vastly superior to a hydrogen car using an internal combustion engine. The whole H2O craze is a rip off. Not far behind is solar, wind power, and even ethanol.

I hate to see tax dollars spent on crazy technologies. I get the impression there are few scientists/engineers in Washington.
Nuclear power (with breeder reactors) and advanced battery technologies seem to me as the most viable solution to our energy situation. I think we still have enough fossil fuels to make the transition. It is matter of setting a mission.
