Businessweek on diesels and plug-ins

I thought the news that fuel cells are finding some i creasing favor and that plug-ins are not was interesting, though maybe overstated:
Diesel, Fuel Cells Get Spotlight as Plug-Ins Lose Favor - Businessweek

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.

I used to believe fuel-cells would achieve commercial viability by 2015, but it was about 10 years ago. They're nice in theory, but Hydrogen is not so practical...
