The fuel cell demonstration road tour in the United States is an encouraging demonstration of alternative fuels technology and should serve to keep the topic alive now that oil prices have slipped. It is even more timely as it comes at the time of the passing of Geoffrey Ballard, one of the technology pioneers. Even though oil is still at over USD100 a barrel, concerns seem have eased somewhat since the sting of USD140-plus prices just a few weeks ago. So it is important that the industry remain focussed on energy-efficient solutions. And this focus should not be limited to any one particular technology. We have seen significant advances in fuel efficiency in internal combustion engines, progress in hybrid drive technology and improvements in DC battery power. The battery area will be the focus of a feature article next month and anyone with suggestions or information for that special report should shoot us an email as soon as possible.
