Events in auto, energy and environmental news are speeding
ahead. These changes seem to take on a life and direction of their own.
During the week of May 14, 2007, General Motors Corp., grabbed
headlines in the Detroit newspapers with their announcement that they
will be selling millions of fuel cell powered vehicles by 2012. I can
recall when fuel cell technology was science fiction. It has now
becoming reality. Technology does not seem to advance by moving from
radical breakthrough to radical breakthrough. Technology grows by
incremental changes. I imagine that the same type of growth happened
100 years ago when the first horseless carriage came on the scene. That
is how the Fuel Cell Industry seems to be growing.
