I don't know if hydrogen powered cars will work just because the President said so. What major research has been done on whether or not kenetic energy can be extracted from the potential energy of hydrogen to make the car go? Isn't hydrogen a very explosive element? Look what happened to the Hindenberg Blimp. I hope that the engineers are more careful this time. If hydrogen is used in that way, then the explosive properties could be used to make the car go really fast. Unless of course it explodes in the process.

There's a lot of promising research into using technologies like hydrogen fuel cells to power vehicles. Hydrogen has gotten a bad rap as a dangerous substance. You might visit this site for an overview of the Hindenburg, or better yet, read Tomorrow's Energy: Hydrogen, Fuel Cells, and the Prospects for a Cleaner Planet by Peter Hoffmann. It's one of the better books out there that covers both the benefits and problems of using hydrogen.
