Challenged in September 2010 to come up with interesting facts every day by one of my work colleagues, I've since entertained him and those near his desk with bits of information dredged from my brain. Some of my audience went on holiday and still wanted the facts so I started posting here, every day I do one of them, usually Monday through Friday, and the occasional post on the weekend. I post these facts here almost every day and you will find two posts on some days to make any missing days.

Today’s interesting fact has to do with the internal hydrogen combustion engine.
The first hydrogen-fueled interanl combustion engine was designed in 1807 by Francois Isaac de Rivaz a French politician and inventor.
In 1808 he fitted it to a working vehicle, creating the worlds first internal combustion powered automobile.
