Default Cheap Hydrogen

Cheap hydrogen production? If they succeed to produce a cost-effectively safe system they may have a winner there!

I'm still skeptical l but I wish they prove me wrong

They will probably succeed in producing an inexpensive product, BUT DON'T BE FOOLED, there will be no savings of any kind for the consumer.

I don't think hydrogen will ever make it's way into any kind of consumer application. It's highly explosive, has 1/4 the energy density of gasoline by volume, it's hard to transport, hard to distribute etc. Maybe for industrial applications, but we've been burning stuff for our energy needs since the caveman days, maybe it's time to move on. The generation of nearly free energy should be the goal of man kind. With nearly free energy you can grow crops in the desert, desalinate ocean water, live independently, and solve all of humanity's problems.

Free energy? I believe Tesla had it over 100 years ago. Too bad we don't appreciate these great minds like we should in their own time. Einstein knew, when they asked him what it was like to be a genius and he told them to go ask Tesla. The world may never see another like him again.

I can't be more proud of been a member of this forum after reading such a truly piece of art statement, Tesla was the greatest of all scientist of his time he die poor and forget by all the rest of the scientist band wagon who never take him seriously after he lost everything in his last project.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
