In every study we've done, fuel cells surface as the most promising long-term pathway for the industry -- even if you use fossil fuels, like natural gas, as the source of hydrogen.

It's important to note that the apparent HIV antiviral compounds identified in the Bonn study occur within the sunflower plant, not the edible seed or oil of sunflower. However, we already know that sunflower seed and oil have proven nutritional and health benefits unrelated to the defense chemicals within the plant that it uses to defend itself against fungal diseases.

We've gotten enormous response to this study. I had a phone call from a professor from the University of Kansas who wanted to incorporate some [of the results] into his humanities class.

I don't believe that a hydrogen economy depends on a carbon economy at all.

Fuel cells create a better automobile that's 50 percent more energy-efficient overall and sustainable from energy and safety perspectives.

Fuel cells and the hydrogen economy are absolutely the next great race for industry.
