Listening to: Love Rain - Jill Scott

So MIT announced some kick ass new catalysts for making electrolysis more efficient… which is cool from a fuel production point of view. But what i wonder is whether or not we can use the O₂ part of the equation to make artificial gills? Maybe creating a honey comb of the catalyst… your time under water would then be limited by your battery. I suspect a tank of compressed air is probably a more efficient way of spending an hour under the waves. But actually swimming like a fish, that’d be cool.
