You're a waste of time.

We are the leading polluter of the world when it comes to green house emissions. That isn't something to take lightly Jefferson.

You are not even READING what I am showing here, are you...
That is PRECISELY what my link proves.
The U.S. IS the leading polluter of the world!
It says it right there in black and white! (Soon to be in darkred and white...)



The US emits more, absolutely and per head, than any other country - although it also produces more wealth. When Kyoto was agreed, the US signed and committed to reducing its emissions by 6%. But since then it has pulled out of the agreement and its carbon dioxide emissions have increased to more than 15% above 1990 levels.

How many times do I need to repost that before you comprehend what it EXPLICITLY SAYS???

I don't own a car (really). I work out of a home office.

I am looking to get a motorcycle though for some back road exploring.

I wish.
Bought it very used, and I believe the fuel economy is about average.
But as you said, not the greatest...

Let me know when you get that motorcycle (if your girlfriend lets you!).

Maybe I'll make the long trek out your way, and we can cycle some of the backroads.

Of course, I might just have to run you off the road, you pansy liberal!

VWs and a Subaru - all of them running on E85.

Do you know what E85 is?


...and I have a motorcycle.

Still working on the GF... we'll see if I make any progress.

There are some great scenic back roads around here, or so I have heard, that are great for cruising. I'll make sure to install some side mounted spikes to avoid getting run off the road by you conservative schmuck!
