Roger Billings Showing the First Hydrogen Fuel Cell Car

Here is a short piece of news coverage on Roger Billings and his announcement of the first hydrogen fuel cell car back in 1991.  The clip, from ABC 27 News in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, shows part of the announcement event with Lieutenant Governor Mark Singel at the state capitol.  Roger Billings gives rides in the Ford Fiesta, which started as an electric vehicle donated by the US Postal Service -- watch for the steering wheel on the wrong side.  This is a neat piece of history that I was happy to find making its way onto YouTube.
