Not sure what they would gain by converting to fuel cells as the article suggests. They probably would still require onsite storage for their hydrogen source in order to insure uniterupted supply, either hydrogen, lng, natural gas or propane. what's better in a fire, a heating oil tank or a propane tank? joelja On Tue, 19 Nov 2002, Johannes Ullrich wrote:

On-site fuel storage is one of those double-edge swords.The article is comparing the relatively 'inert' diesel fuel to the aircraft fuel that caused the devastation at the WTC. Did the authors of this article ever hear about heating oil tanks?
