Hydrogen Fuel Station in Iceland

Posted by michael on from the should-be-greenland-ha-ha-ha dept.

klang points to this blurb about Iceland opening a hydrogen refueling facility. While it isn't, as the blurb states, the world's first hydrogen station, it is notable because it produces the hydrogen onsite with electricity from geothermal energy and electrolysis, making it an almost perfectly clean energy source.

    It's true. I'm watching it on CNN right now. They're talking about auto-erotic asphyxiation.

    theres a theory tht says that if you jumped off of a building that you would accelerate at an appx rate of 9.8m/s^2 .
    want to test it?

    Sure...

    Yep, looks like you're accelerating at approximately 9.8m/(s)^2

    Norsk Hydro is the same company who supplied Timothy McVeigh with fertiziler for the Oklahoma city bombing.

    Now, they are making hydrogen fuel stations, undermining the oil based economy. I'm not a sucker for conspiracy theory, but it makes you wonder.
