1) It's explosive. It is explosive. Unless you find a way to it from exploding because of a spark, you can't use it. When car cayches fire because of gasoline, it's bad enough. If it will explode immediately, you can't live with it.
2) It's very expensive to get hydrogen to the gas stations. Also, imagine the potential effect of a pipe/trailer with hydrogen catching fire. Then, put terrorists in the picture...
3) I don't think there is a way to get a lot of hydrogen without using a lot more energy than it will produce. Where is this energy coming from? I can only see electricity as a source. Well, electricity comes from oil and gas. Considering how much energy will be lost on each stage of the process of refining of hydrogen, you'll need a lot more oil to run a car than if you'd just use gasoline. So, at the very least, use of hydrogen wouldn't reduce world's consumption of oil.
GPL software is like this thing called Linux, where you can never commercialize
What about RedHat? Anyway, last time I checked not all of the world was commerce... Farmers may want to write code because they like the process, or just because they want that thing to do this. Try putting the Start menu on the right of the taskbar... And then, why not share what you wrote?
Do stripped versions of Windows support ActiveX? As far as I know, it's part of IE.
Many applications use it and probably break without it, for example Eclipse. Also, som apps even use IE for rendering HTML, for example Winamp's minibrowser and Gnucleus. If these programs will break with a stripped version of Windows, then IE & ActiveX really are part of the OS.
When I used Mozilla (around 0.9.3), I had one major peoblem with it - speed. I was never sure whether it really did start or that it really recieved the mouse click or the button pressed and doing something slowly, or that it exited already or I'm typing in the wrong window..
Is this going to improve? Is it going to start in less than 10 seconds? Are buttons going to be pressed right after you click on them? More importantly, is text you type in the mailer going to appear and cursor going to move immediately after you press the button on the keyboard?

From the article:
It would be like having an electric cord stretched across the solar system," he said.
Then, I'm not so sure if we really want to do this... Maybe after the (soon and assured) completion of the moon elevator?
There are lots of problems with hydrogen...

Your processor has performed an illegal instruction and was flooded.
Yes, and the only OS you ever can use is Windows.
Oh, yes, if you are a lawyer, you can understand that we mean this only if you got the other OS illegaly.
I don't think that such vague statements are accidental - they can really hurt.
