When I was a research assistant in college I was encouraged for one of my presentations to emphasize safe hydrogen storage as a vehicle fuel source, when really the research was all about how minuscule amounts of hydrogen change the electrical/optical properties of thin metallic films (and desorption was on the order of days). Selling it as a building block for safer hydrogen storage was necessary to get people engaged.
