Ethanol to Hydrogen Reactor Developed

guacamolefoo writes "CNN reports that researchers at the University of Minnesota have developed a small (2 ft. high) hydrogen reactor that turns ethanol into hydrogen and then uses a fuel cell to turn the hydrogen into electricity. It notably does not use fossil fuels in the process. I knew that liquor would save us all some day."

    The bishop, while living, was a follower of God.
    Now dead, his rotting fingers are able to raise
    an army of skeletons from the grave.

  3. Ebaum's World by ShipsToday · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    is THE lamest sight on the internet not because of content, which is simply sucked off from other websites that host original artwork, but because their forums depict horrible a failure of a follower group. First of all, they consider the number of posts they make a sign of superiority and veteranship. lame. This little factoid is even more appalling because if you were to take a look at the CONTENT of their posts, you'll see that they are nothing but idiotic losers. The most insightful thing they can manage is to yell and scream like a whiny, ignorant infant at anyone not posting utter praise and devotion to Ebaum and all of his 100% unoriginal content. For instance, one post made by a visitor to the sight stated that the caption of a video showing two men tumbling down a cliff was incorrect. It was a clip from a Univision newscast, in which the anchor at the end informed the viewers that the two words survived the fall. However, the video caption on the Ebaum site stated something to the effect that workers fell to their death. Upon the presentation of this point in a non-flammatory, calmly stated post the Ebaum forums lit up in fire and flame. The Ebaum "community" (ie, rejects and professional losers) lashed out, like they do when there is ANY hint of criticization of the "perfection" of Ebaum's wonderful unoriginal content. The stated example is only one of several. I hope that now you are more informed, and know the truth about "Ebaum's world" and their non-existent right to exist on the face of the earth. Adios.

    I expected to find thousands of other gay niggers when I joined the GNAA. I have since found this to be completely untrue, and know that I have been deceived. Because of this, I am suing the GNAA and its members for fraud.

    Im just going to hold out for those Cold Fusion generators. They should probably be coming out any day now, right?

    Cold Fusion has been out for a while. It just isn't very efficient. Or for that matter, very user friendly. Or programmer friendly.

    Ok, it sucks! Got it? Cold Fusion sucks!

    I'm sorry, what were we talking about?
