Why don't you post it?  I saw otherwise.  The ones that indicated an increase were blown away by the fact
that we're driving more miles as well.  Oh, that's right, Montana dropped 10% the first year and
California's enjoying the lowest rate per highway mile driven ever.

That coming from a fool.

Did your law school advertise on matchbooks?  And you're an environmentalist?  Shit, that's even worse.
These people promote the new EV-1 electric cars from General Motors.  So little do these idiots know that
electric cars actually pose MORE danger to our environment - how do you propose to dump the batteries?
That'd be real interesting.
