Hydrogen is odorless, invisible, tasteless, non-toxic, and, the most important, a very diffusive gas. This may explain why hydrogen in such places was not recognized earlier.

With a lot of guts, determination and planning Michael P. Henning, Mike Strizki and Jed Dole (pictured top, left […]
Continue ReadingI floated this story out over Twitter a couple of days ago and there was less than a yawn in response.
