Liquid fuels are actually much safer than gaseous fuels in that they are more readily controllable using less resources and less skill.
A gasoline leak is obvious - you can see it on the ground, and it has it's own smell; if it is an acitve leak, you can readily find the troublesome spot by sight and apply a patch.
A hydrogen leak, on the other hand, only gives off a slight hissing sound. If other things are added, it can also be smelled. In order to find the troublesome spot, you need to apply soapy water to the surface. Not that it is a good idea to patch a pressurized tank - it needs to be replaced entierly.
And Fyron, you're not responding to my post about how your initial reply in this thread implied that hydrogen was safe? Odd. Does that mean you are surrendering the point?
