A snip from a Fuel Cell fan site: Methanol is one of the safest and most environmentally sound fuels available. In the United States, there are over 180,000 vehicle fires each year in which gasoline is the first material to ignite. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a switch to methanol could reduce the incidence of these fires by 90 percent, saving 720 lives, preventing nearly 3,900 serious injuries, and reducing property losses by millions of dollars.

I also read in ten years up to 20% of all cars sold will be fuel cell powered by methanol.
