Too bad we are so dim witted !!
i won't go into much detail but LNG is not the best way to transporting cryogenic NG around. Same goes for hydrogen. Hydrogen does sound sexy because rockets and sun use hydrogen, why not at consumer level is how joe public think. Have so many friends and relatives keep telling me hydrogen is the way to go, just repeating the media narrative. There are politic and business barrier that keep ammonia and ethanol behind locked door. BTW, Indy race cars use E85 ethanol, surely it's good enough for us average joe public.
