Or a 486 computer in 1988?

If you watched even 15 minutes of the first video you would have seen him explain that solar panel cost has dropped significantly even in the time since the article was written.

Oh, and his batteries don't have to be replaced every 5-7 years.

This is very practical and suppressed for the reasons he details.

And maybe if the US wasn't spending trillions on invading and conquering lands 8000 miles away there could be some R&D thrown at actually becoming energy independent.

Solar Hydrogen IS the GAME CHANGER and you won't hear about it on CBS or CNN. Guess why.
