As someone who understands what it might take to get a Hummer or SUV
to 100 empg and zero NOx, I want a Hummer/SUV that can seat at least
one person, accelerate from zero to sixty mph in less than thirty
seconds, and not crumple if I inadvertantly lean against it.

There are only two ways to produce useful amounts of LH2 and H2O2,
economically-- new coal generation and new nuclear generation. While
I personally want the latter, thanks to wrongheaded environmentalists,
the former is more likely.
