Liquid Nitrogen Economy

 * Delete. Not encyclopediac, original concept unknown outside Wikipedia Wtshymanski 22:27, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is by no means complete and hence a circular reference is not requirement. Reference to a research is required and supplied in this case.--Pete 19:21, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, but Cleanup and Rename. Searching for CryoCar, LN2000, or "Liquid Nitrogen" engine shows that this is a known concept and research topic. However, this article includes too much speculation about the economic effects of the engine. ManoaChild 23:24, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Two universities have built working cryogenic cars. Funding for one project was provided by the U.S. Department of Energy Continue to improve all aspects of the article, the visionary as well as the practical objections. Perhaps need to rename something like Cryogenic energy storage.  Lumos3 23:29, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Cryogenic energy storage is a bit too general, unless the article is expanded significantly. What about Cryogenic engine or Cryogenic vehicle? ManoaChild 23:48, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

 * The concept seems to have some following, at least as far as vehicles driven by cryogens goes. The term itself–'liquid nitrogen economy'–does not.  It draws very few Google hits.  There are several reasonable renaming suggestions above; I'd be happy if the closing admin went with any of them. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 01:44, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep with a possible rename. --Apyule 04:02, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep The title was based on: Kleppe J.A., Schneider R.N., “A Nitrogen Economy”, Winter Meeting ASEE, Honolulu, HI, December, 1974. --Pete 13:55, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
