Most fuel cells technology derives hydrogen from methanol fuel. Canon's prototype uses hydrogen as the fuel. The coolness about these things will be more power from a cell the size of a standard battery and you will recharge them in a few seconds.
It can be hard to hear over the clipped-signal of the marketing hype - but I think the jury is still out on the "environmentally friendly" claims.

Check out this thread on the supposedly serious topic of planetary exploration.
...its simple. Australia is a shining light to freedom and democracy the world over. Why? Because we have aussie_a running around agitating the democratic process. No Patriot Act type laws in Australia is there. No sir. No US style reformation of the tax system here. No US style dismantling of the public health system. Gun laws. What guns? Hmmm.
I hope that a lot of people come out very vocally to demonstrate what a stupid idea this is
People generally love these ideas.
The state government in Queensland (Australia) has an online petition on the subject of daylight savings. It has been running for about a week, and already has more than 3 times as many signatures as any other e-petition they have ever run. Despite sitting on the tropic of Capricorn, Queenslanders want DST. Stupid, but thats how it is.
How about re-releasing MS-DOS 6.22 and MS WfW 3.11 as open source so as to get kiddies in Africa and South-East Asia into computing. You never know, it just may stop those kids from getting hooked on Linux. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
It also comes at the same time that the number of Chinese people living in extreme poverty rose by 800,000 last year.
See those pillars?
To reduce cost they gathered together 500,000 of their most poverty stricken people and walled them in them there pillars. To further reduce costs, Buddhists and yak farmers were retrained in steel smelting and put to work on making the rails for nix. Sweet, eh?.
nice pun:) I wont snap back at your arrogance - enjoy it this way:
the best cake/cookies I have made are when you grab the stuff you would otherwise throw out (stems, leaf, etc), place it in the biggest cauldron you can find, cover with water and gently boil. After several hours remove the vegetation, turn off the heat, add butter and let it cool overnight. The butter and oil will mix - scoop it off, discard the water and start cooking.
This way you wont find yourself picking shit out of your teeth at your next picnic.
Your digestive tract will show you a good reason why hemp fibre is used in rope and sails. You will have a very bad belly ache that no amount of munchies will fix.
"The number 420 is a euphemism for cannabis and its associated culture. The exact origin of the term is unknown, although there is much speculation and many urban legends about its origin. Smoking marijuana at 4:20 or on April 20 has special meaning to some." -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4:20
When asked about the possible ecological effects on marine life the Interoceanal Federation of Dolphins said, "Eeeep eeeep eeep eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep" (Don't sail near sharks with fricken lasers).

...a Beowulf cluster of these...
That would depend on whether its short-wheel-base or unbelievably-short-wheel base.
Many of the greatest discoveries were unexpected adjuncts to research in other areas..
Wikipedia has a good article on the development of Technology during World War II.
Radar, sonar, synthetic fuels, "Digital electronics, particularly, was also given a massive boost by war-related research" (ENIAC).
A new space race is A Good Thing.

Well, we could always live in hope. (Whilst, of course, continuing to vote for our favorite Idol).
