One more thought on the American Automobile Affair
Week before last, I was in Silicon Valley at rush hour. Me n my rentacar wuz stuck in the two-lane parking lot reserved for lonely drivers while the sociable, the scofflaws, the motorcyclists and the Prius drivers sped by in the third lane. On the radio, the story was about how California law granted a yellow sticker that allowed a certain number of Priuses and other cleaner cars into the "HOV" lane. All of a sudden, a car with a sticker was worth a kilobuck more on the used car lot. Of course! It'd do 60 when regular cars had to go 20.
