that would make you popular with the neighbors... Seems like fuel cells have an application for co-gen apps. of course you need a source of hydrogen such as natural gas which has it's own problems...

Looks like a great idea but, in Columbus, people can't even get a license to sell booze on Sunday, let alone run a nuclear plant. Can you imagine going to your city councel and saying "The good news is that we're getting rid of the generator that everyone has been complaining about. The bad news is that we want to install a nuclear plant." --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc
