Once H2 fueled vehicles come on line in perhaps 10-15 years, their by-product of combustion will be water vapor. Water vapor is much more effective "greenhouse gas" than CO2. Current gasoline-powered cars also produce water vapour - about 8 pound per US gallon of gas burned, I believe. (It then condenses into ice right where I want to ride, apparently.) |

At any rate, the air can be very heavily saturated with water without it raining, or without rain clearing up the humidity. *Check out many of the tropical locations of the world where heavy rains don't lessen humidity. Perhaps H2 powered SUVs will bring on a glacial cooling period when all that SUV derived water vapor freezes into snow and ice in Minnesota and Canada, feeding glaciers and burying our cities!!! Wow, those SUVs are really something, huh? SMH I think the main contribution of the SUV is toward the male ego of the American psyche. Perhaps like being a gladiator in Roman times. Their only drawbacks is the gases they spew and the people they kill on the roads, but those risks are greatly offset by their benefits. Well, the Roman Circus had its losers too. |

Well the sheep aren't actually happy, but they like suffering as a sort of highway to heaven. "HAPPY PEOPLE IS NOT GOOD FOR BUSINESS" In a consumeristic society the more people get sick, suffer, die, the better it's for business. For example, people who can't ride bikes in dangerous traffic become couch potatoes, who soon become sick, then suffer and finally die. You can see it everywhe THE JUNK FOOD INDUSTRY getting kids addicted to sweet, unhealthy stuff; THE ACCIDENT INDUSTRY that keeps people buying ever bigger SUVs; THE WAR INDUSTRY that keeps conflicts among ethnics and religions; THE OIL INDUSTRY that keeps adding to Global Warming as if there were no tomorrow (there isn't, thanks to them); THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY that benefits from sickness, obesity and mental anxiety; THE RELIGIOUS INDUSTRY that makes sure you live in fear of a loving God; and finally THE FUNERAL INDUSTRY that makes sure nothing gets wasted. |

Check out many of the tropical locations of the world where heavy rains don't lessen humidity. From: http://www.wxdude.com/humidity.html Air can only hold 100% relative humidity. For rain the 100% relative humidity is at the altitude where the rain is coming from, not the ground where the humidity gage is normally. It takes some time for the 100% humidity "mist" to form into drops which fall as rain. There are cases where there can be super cooled water being more than 100%, but that is rare. So for all practical purposes vapor is not going to do much to increase global warming because it will precipitate out as rain when it reaches 100% humidity at some place in the atmosphere. Since we get rain now, the air is often saturated at some place with the maximum moisture it can hold. |

nothing to laugh about
The American psyche is something that the rest of the world doesn't
understand. It's a sort of vaudeville with SUVs and guns. A farse with yellow ribbons... "Stick Magnetic Ribbons on your SUV" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t4HO...eature=related |
