Save $$ with Hydrogen, an Alternative to High Fuel Prices.
Hydrogen huh… so what’s the big deal about it? Well, if the price of oil continues its climb to the stratosphere, we’ll all likely use it to fuel our vehicles, heat our homes and cook our meals in the future - in the very near future.
It is a fantastic alternate energy source, because of it’s abundance. In fact, it’s the most profusely abundant resource in all the world. Seventy one percent of the earth’s surface is water. That means that two thirds of all that water is H2. Think about it, the supply is inexhaustible.As you know, H2O is the signature formula for a water molecule. That’s two elements: hydrogen, and oxygen. The trick is separating them from each other. Splitting the water molecule is how we can get the gas. And it’s easier than most think. The problem with most people is they do not realize the potential (Water) H has as an alternative energy source. The majority simply have not considered hydrogen a serious energy contender. Overlooked is significant real dollar savings they could realize immediately. Should someone get a look at the current technology, even if by accident, they’re usually very, very surprised. Still, for one reason or another, most believe dabbling with this element is fine for engineers and scientists. Yes, they appreciate it’s use by auto-manufactures whose fuel cells produce electricity for their hybrids. However, the majority considers it nothing more than a gimmicky material back yard inventor’s play with. Think again, current H technology is real, it’s practical and it’s proven science, not some tinkerers’ fantasy. Furthermore, what makes it so attractive is that the stuff is everywhere, no short supply for the foreseeable future; or at least not for another billion years or so. The reason! About 70% of the world’s surface is water, while the remaining 30% is where we live. 
Yeah okay - you say, that’s a lot a Hydrogen, but still - isn’t the stuff kind-a dangerous? What about that blimp, the Hindenburg, wasn’t it that stuff that burnt it up? Those who've seen the newsreel remember the terrible inferno, even though the camera was unable to capture color, however the flames engulfing the airship were clearly visible in black n white. The paint, an iron oxide and aluminum-impregnated cellulose acetate butyrate... essentially, the same stuff that space shuttles use for propellants. Yet, how many millions of gallons of gasoline have we pumped into our vehicles? Rest assured, H is no more dangerous than gasoline. However, to produce commercial quantities of this element requires it’s extraction from petroleum-based substances, usually natural gas. Still,this method presents a problem. The process produces pollutants, and they usually end up in the atmosphere. 
On the other hand, when taken from Ordinary Tap Water, pollutants are absent. H without the 2O will prove a dependable fuel for our cars and trucks and heating for our homes. It’s also an excellent gas substitute for acetylene/oxygen. Using H means clean welding and cutting, no dirty soot or pollutants. Guess what, when H burns, it produces... yep good ol water.Still worried about H, how about natural gas or propane… Obviously, they’re safe to use; we turn to them every day to cook and heat; H is just as safe. So, will H ever replace fossil fuels… Yes, although it may take a while, but the exchange has already started. Here's the two engines types most used for everything from RV's to giant ships currently in use. Okay, this is where the rubber meets the road, or so to speak,For some big stuff,And some really big stuff.And some other stuff too.
Yes H2O is here to stay - a good thing too and so is H. As oil prices continue to climb, manufactures are adding new H focused products as a result of aggressive research and development programs. Using this alternative energy source for domestic and commercial purposes will become more common as time passes. Links:  Custom Search

Hydrogen gas's flames are virtually invisible in daylight. The flames clearly visible were actually from the metallic paint that covered the airship.
