I haven't seen you for a little bit Zen. Yes, of course the over exorbitant price of fuel is inflating the cost of most every commodity. I didn't think I have to mention that since I'm surrounded by the most intelligent gentlemen on RIU
We could easily convert over to hydrogen power soon. This is what we could do:
Everyone pays a ~200 dollars or so for a hydrogen kit and installation
Everyone spend ~300 dollars on a home hydrogen generator
Thats it, than you could double your gas mileage on your present vehicle until you bought a car that ran exclusivly off of hydrogen- that you can produce in the convince of your own home. After this was the new fad, the price of oil would plummet because of supply and demand! So, not only would you get double your gas mileage, you would be paying less for fule too. This is not science fiction, this is science fact! We have the technology and its readily available just not commercially for obvious reasons. You can buy the hydrogen kits to convert your car into a hybrid, look it up on google or something.
