Louis Lingg writes "cars.com has posted an article reporting on a panel discussion sponsored by the Midwest Automotive Media Association. Representatives of the
Chrysler Group, Ford, General Motors and American Honda 'agreed
that hybrid powertrains and hydrogen fuel cells are the future of
automotive propulsion.'

[Christine] Sloane [GM’s director of technology strategy
development] said, "The vision of a hydrogen economy and fuel cell
vehicles is absolutely a compelling vision, and it’s not a vision for
2050 or 2040 or 2020. It’s a vision we will drive and try to make
commercially significant by 2010.”"
