Quote: Hydrogen fuel cell cars? Now That's Stupid.
Why that stupid? At least Hydrogen you can store compared to solar, wind...
Only a question.

It's stupid because you might as well just store the energy in a battery in an electric car. Every step you take costs energy.
Also, storing the hydrogen. Not near me! That stuff forms an explosive mixture with air in almost any proportion. Also, if stored under pressure, and there's a tiny leak, it has a reverse Joule-Thompson coefficient at high pressure: the jet gets hot when it expands and burns (with an invisible flame) and soon after, a very unpleasant noise.
And imagine a leak in a car due to the consumer's excellent maintenance! Or after a crash! Everything's wrong with hydrogen-powered vehicles except the hype.

I think you should inform yourself how wide Mercedes developed this technic allready before more than 10 years...

Nothing changes the thermodynamics of the situation: all the hydrogen comes from water and all the water is split by hydrolysis using electricity that could have charged batteries, instead.
And the danger of hydrogen, loose amongst the public and stored widely (for refills) is quite insane. Just because one creates a technology doesn't make it sensible.
Hydrogen Powered vehicles has always been a PR Hype for the auto industry and various others.
From Wikipedia:
The 350 Bar (5000 PSI) hydrogen tanks for hydrogen storage contain enough fuel for a 248 miles (399 km) drive.[3] Using 700 Bar (10000 PSI) tanks the range is extended 70% to 421 miles (678 km).[4]
That is amazingly dangerous.
If you check this,
This Is Why Mercedes Is Giving Up on Hydrogen Fuel Cells - Torque News[^] you should also check the comments. In fact, they're particularly informative.

No - have left my body to medical science as I do not anticipate that I will need it post my demise, and then it's naked* cremation when they are done**.
* No box - not no clothes
** This may change with hospital best practice but is the current procedure.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

Personally, I'd prefer to be turned into a diamond[^], but truth be told, it's really up to my next of kin. Funerals and burials are to comfort the living, so whatever comforts them best will be OK with me.

Never mind trying to hatch appliances (as in the photo of the other response). You've earned a +

Let me explain what I am looking for. I have noticed that when I open a directory in Explorer, there is an automatic set of Details fields that are selected that depends on what type of file is predominant in the directory. And since I often play music from directories that have all WAV, FLAC or MP3 files (I am in the process of converting all the audio files I have to FLAC), Explorer sets the Detail fields for the ListControl as "Name", "#", "Title", "Contributing Artists" & "Album", which are the attributes typically set for the files when the CD is ripped. I would prefer the Detail fields just be "Name" & "Length" as I couldn't care less what album the track had been ripped from, and I change the "Name" so that it includes the "Artist" and as well an ID system that inherently organizes the tracks into temporal release order. I probably would do something similar for directories that have other files, although that doesn't seem to bother me as much.
Yes, I know I can change the fields with a menu command, but I'd like for it to be done automatically. Perhaps the detail list is set on some configuration file in the Windows directory or in the Registry?
