Not that it will mean much to anybody outside of California, but my pile passed SMOG today, legally, with a fuel cell. I'm stoked.

i thought fuel cells were 50 states legal, as long as there DOT approved for road use, and are installed properly with the proper amount of protection??

That's the thing, fuel cells are not DOT approved, nor are they CARB.
