    > What do you pull your boat with?
    What fraction of SUV owners own a boat? 0.1%?? I have a friend who a few years ago bought an SUV. Being an environmentalist I tried to talk him out of it. He responded that he needed it to pull his boat. Well, he still doesn't own a boat and as far as I can tell, there is no boat in sight. I'm not saying you don't have a boat but, I view destroying our planet's ecosphere, because of a selfish hobby, as antisocial. And yes, I walk or ride my bike, and I even let my driver's license expire many years ago. I think gas ought to be $10/gal and people would be more responsible in how they use it. Then it also would not be necessary for Bush, and other assholes to cozy up to evil dictators like the king of Saudi Arabia, and less money would leave the US to pay for a non-renewable resource helping to prop up undemocratic regimes.
