Default Boeing Fuel Cell Plane Flies At Last!

Don's somewhat peculiar definition of what constitutes a "fuel" that
excludes hydrogen seems to rankle some folks, but his nomenclature
seems to hold at least internal consistency. I think it's worth a
look.



On this (and other things) Don is exactly right. Looking at the big picture,
hydrogen is not a fuel. It is best to think of hydrogen as just a way of
packaging and transporting energy...a damn inefficient way of packaging and
transporting energy.
