Yep - wasn't hydrogen once a bomb? It's sort of the same reason that if I were in the Navy, I'd never feel comfortable aboard a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
Fact is - there are some very, very efficient gasoline powered cars now on the market. BMWs get very good mileage for their high-powered engines. Plus, there's diesel. All this amounts to is good engineering.
But in CA. the environment and environmental lobbyists are the deciding voices. Of course, that doesn't prevent Cal-Trans from implementing wider freeways...
