Welcome to Chemical Engineering Progress
The staff of CEP wishes all of our readers a happy new year. Thanks to our readers for making the premiere Critical Issues Forum (Nov. 2004) on the hydrogen economy, such a success. We received numerous letters, of which some are published in this issue (pp. 4-6). We hope to continue this dialogue among our readers. Also, the next topic of discussion, LNG, will appear in the next issue, and again, we ask our readers for observations and comments.
