General motors proposing hydrogen fuel cells for airplanes. Boom?

<p><strong>[As heard on WTAG, WHYN, WHJJ on 2021-06-22 with Mr. Jim Polito]</strong></p> <p>We had more discussion today with Mr. Jim Polito about this fuel cell. Jim isn't as happy about it as I am. I think it's just a cool technology for airplanes for a few reasons, but we really got into that. And then we started talking about hydrogen, how do you make the hydrogen? How do you make electricity?</p> <p>[00:00:19] So that product is into what we're looking at really now with nuclear. These new, what is it? Fifth or sixth generation plans. And that is probably what we should be doing. And yet there's so much pushback. Anyways, here we go with Mr. Jim Polito.</p> <p>[00:00:39] <strong>Jim Polito:</strong> [00:00:39] You all know the story of the Hindenburg, right? Hydrogen, the Nazis.</p> <p>[00:00:44]Dirigible the blimp. . It got its ability to rise through hydrogen. We wouldn't give the Nazis helium, which has the same properties, but is safe. Hydrogen is not safe. Wow. It looks like general motors is thinking about or working on a hydrogen fuel cell for airplanes. Joining us out to talk about this, but just briefly and some more important things is our good friends in tech talk guru.</p> <p>[00:01:17] Craig Peterson. Good morning.</p> <p>[00:01:19] <strong>Craig Peterson:</strong> [00:01:19] Hey, good morning. And today we have a shortage of helium as well. For birthday parties, I would have gotten more expensive. Maybe. Yeah, maybe there's something there. Maybe.</p> <p>[00:01:30] <strong>Jim Polito:</strong> [00:01:30] I don't know, I hate to put you on this one, but you shared the story with me. And I said generally the motors developing a hydrogen fuel cell for airplanes.</p> <p>[00:01:40] All I can say is, oh, the humanity. Oh, the humanity. So jealous my good friend. What? This is all about.</p> <p>[00:01:51] <strong>Craig Peterson:</strong> [00:01:51] Sure. I'm really actually excited about this. I think an interesting idea. Yeah. First of all, the Hindenburg, there were some serious design clots, not th
