“I also enjoyed scanning through your FC in Japan article and it looks like you realistically covered the situation extremely well.  So much of the popular information leaves out essential realities such as price and can be a bit pie in the sky.  In talking with some fuel cell folks about fc viability the price of electricity is perhaps the major factor.”

"I am pleased to hear from you and appreciate the feedback.  You my friend are very impressive!!! 

 

My report that went to Tokyo was focused on your discussion and knowledge of the players in the market.  The conference would have been very dismal from my point of view without your input.  In fact, I was so charged that I finished my report during the flight back to Texas.

Thank you for the presentation, lead and most of all ~ sharing your knowledge!!!!" - July 2008

Charlie and Jim:

Charlie, I think Jim would be a great addition to a Fuel Cell workshop for DoD. He knows an awful lot of what’s going on out there. Jim, Charlie Neal is the guy at IMTI who is working with DoD to build their Fuel Cell roadmap.
