I finally see how the FCEV will be able to work. The economics of the "Hydrogen Economy" is a such a massive amount of Bullshit, that we can just capture the methane from this Bullshit, and reform it into Hydrogen!

Kind of like a primitive version of an "Infinite Improbability Drive" in which the probability of it working is so astronomically small that it just does. "So long and thanks for all the fish."
