Extracting it *is* easy. It also requires energy to split the molecules, and you don't get more energy out of it than you put into it. Hydrogen capture is not like gasoline refining in which you...

Mobil 1 synthetic currently on sale at CostCo

Just FYI, noticed that 6 packs were on sale today, $32.99. Figured some folks may want to save a couple bucks if they have a membership.
