Pretty cool, the following link at slashdot.org:

<http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/02/27/1837223&mode=thread>
reads as follows:
*from the in-this-house,-we-obey-the-laws-of-thermodynamics dept.*
An anonymous reader writes /"Using the same physics principles as
submarines, a new company is planning a fuelless air ship
<http://www.fuellessflight.com/>. Recent advances in ultra light and
strong materials are making this concept a practical reality
<http://www.machinedesign.com/ASP/viewSelectedArticle.asp?strArticleId=56635&strSite=MDSite&Screen=AEROSPACE&catId=379>."/
There's no question that changes in buoyancy can be used to propel a
vehicle
<http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/11/24/0438213&tid=126>,
but "fuelless" is going to be tricky.
The original article above at slashdot references the an article from
