There is probably a reason because I'm no chemist or physicist. But I wonder why they don't use Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and Magnesium (Mg). You add them to gether and you get Magnesium Chloride and all the hydrogen gets released. I'm pretty certain that neither of these items are rare. Considering many foods contain Magnesium and every person contains HCl.
I was writing a short Delphi program to test if some system calls would work as advertised, such as copying a file.
To test that the copy was successful, I decided to have my program run the copied program (it would copy into a new subdirectory, so the name could stay the same). What program did I choose? You guessed it, the one I had conveniently just finished.
As soon as I hit enter I realized what a bad idea this was. The program multiplied like rabbits, filling the hard drive in short order, and then eating up as much memory as it could get a hold of. This was also on Windows 95, so it refused to reboot after shutdown.
For those unfamiliar with Equilibrium, consider it an updated version of Farenheit 451 in terms of plot and characters, with action sequences drawn from The Matrix. It's currently available on DVD.

That's odd. About a week ago I lost my thumbnail sized MP3 player, and I~d&()@#[NO CARRIER]

Soylent Hydrogen is made of people!
These really bad jokes using classic Star Wars lines are making me want to rip my eyes out!
They said they fixed it! It's not my fault!
Curse my metal body, I wasn't fast enough!
Oh, no. Not Again.
Don't assume that open-sourcing will instantly solve all your incompatability issues.
...until I see him perform the Frogger theme song while trying to cross a freeway.
Actually, wouldn't he be the insensitive clod?
Somehow you managed to jump to the conclusion that it's going to start plotting against you or something?
It's funny you should mention that. Last night, some woman named Sarah Connor called me to come get my Roomba from her front porch.
So, you're a waffle man, eh?
Is the VCR. Granted, I'm pretty sure it was developed for home use before 1979, but it certainly didn't become widespread until the 1980s.
Better - duckies and bunnies.
Now I have a new way of capturing a lobster.
My God! You took it out of its packaging!?!
I went the other way with my worst example.

Robbie the robot and the "Robot" from Lost in Space are the same robot (or robot suite). kvn ps. get it right you tin plated ninny!
That's a pretty good Dr. Smith impression, particularly the way that it's inaccurate. Observe:
Robby
Lost in Space's B-9 robot
I guess where there's a multi-billion dollar will, there's a way...
...and a beneficiary.
No, no, no. In Soviet Russia, cliche uses YOU!
I wouldn't even use it if I third to.
And it shall get no quarter from me!
Agreed.

Actually, he modded the wood himself. Observe: Outside view of the noise insulation case. The outside plush coverage only serves as an optical embellishment. Personally, I think that look works better on the interior of a Chevy Nova.
Shouldn't this be called Pisces?
*They were also the first to orbit a woman (maybe 1967? The late 60s come to mind), however as this is not a technological achievement I left it out.
This is no great achievement - I orbit women on a regular basis. Unfortunately, that's because they won't let me land on them.
Now I know what my next case mod will look like. Thanks!
In Soviet Rus- aw, forget it.
