I don't disagree at all Re: Toyota. The "OMG DANGEROUS" argument against Hydrogen doesn't resonate well with me for the following reason: When humans started distilling petroleum to obtain highly refined fuels, that was dangerous as hell. We figured it out. And while it's not totally safe (gasoline still goes boom sometimes) it's common now and we accept the risks and know how to mitigate them. The same can be done for other fuel sources like Hydrogen.
Technological problems have solutions. That said, it seems like well-funded and well-educated companies in the energy space haven't figured it out yet. The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if that's all just because we can't have Joe Public going around getting low-cost energy.
It's time might be coming with the increasing droughts and such. The powers that be just need to be able to limit / control your production. If they can't sell you gas, they will sell you the water to make the gas.
