Pump This

Enough already. Everyone is complaining about and is amazed at the high cost of fuel. It's called supply and demand folks. If you want prices to go down, use LESS! If you bought a big pick 'em up truck last year and refuse to go any less than 90 on the freeway, you have NO room to complain.

Now I realize that for some of us, it's difficult to slow down to conserve gasoline. I try on my way to work. The response is unanimous... honked horns, tailgating, flashing lights (I'm in the slow lane jerk!), and, of course, dirty looks as they speed by "turtle" car. Heaven forbid I should go 65 in a 70mph zone. Even when I do go 70 there are tons of drivers that pull out and go around me. 85-90 seems to be the norm. Excuse me... you are in a hurry to go where??? Work!? It must be a pretty exciting job that you just can't wait to get there. By the way...nice Hummer. Does it come with it's own gas station?

Now I know what your thinking - wouldn't it be nice if a State Police Officer would see the 90 mph driver and pull him over. It will never happen! They will continue you to zero in on the "5-10 mph over the limit" drivers like you. WHY? Because chasing a vehicle going 90+ mph just isn't good for gas conservation efforts. Get Real!
