ADigitalMan, I totally agree with you on everything you said. And as for $4 a gallon gas coming soon to the USA, well, I live in England and gas is currently priced at about 91 pence a litre (roughly $1.75). There are 4 litres in a gallon, so over here we are basically paying $7 a gallon over here! Thank God my car is small and fuel efficient!!

This problem is not even hard to solve - the technology is there, it's the will of the government and, sadly, joe public, that is lacking.

However, I disagree with Jedisage's environmentalist bashing - we are totally fucking up this planet and one day, in your lifetime, you will wish we hadn't.
