Fun stuff.
Nice post. Though i'm thinking you want to clarify that last bit. (unless H2 is running as a Dem -- then the scare-tactic is okay.)

W/o an oxidiser, H2 wont be auto-igniting. So I'm guessing your talking about a punctured high-pressure tank . . where it hits the air . . with its reverse Joule-Thomson effect, and all. (?)

H2 . . we may as well all have personal blimps if we're going to use that much of the stuff.

Actually, make mine a Zeplin . . I want speed.

Cover the top in solar-panels; wire to split your water. You would never have to fill up. -- wh-whooo

Well, unless of course you have a lead-foot, in your Zeplin . . . Anything Lead - Zeplin is bound to be short-lived.
