From the Pyrrhic Freedom Department comes news that it looks like all the hydrogen for our Freedom Cars is going to come from fossil fuels anyway. A-and what's more:

Even if industry manages to safely contain the carbon left behind, the Bush administration's plan to extract hydrogen from fossil fuels will wind up wasting energy. John Heywood, director of MIT's Sloan Automotive Lab, says a system that extracts hydrogen from oil and natural gas and stores it in fuel cells would actually be no more energy efficient than America's present gasoline- based system.
Disappointing if unsurprising. Ah well. From Mother Jones, which I should probably add to the sidebar at some point.
