I saw the networks scambling around putting out the fires on this one this morning... they reduced it to:

Though we don't really need his oil, we can't risk him destabilizing the region, because he's so "unpredictible and unstable".

I don't know... It's a lot like an addict... or a jealous lover... Or, maybe we oughta use it up as fast as possible, and get the oil companies off our backs... If only they hadn't been buying up all the superior alternative technologies for the past 50 years... or so has the fringe been hinting...

It's not about comparisons of competitively priced autos... It's not about SUVs... it's not about the economy... For me, the technology is the issue. We have the technology to walk away from oil, casually, with the smiling satisfaction of knowing we are really doing good for a change... ttr
