#1 
At a gas station one afternoon, I felt perfectly comfortable leveling a death-ray glare at the soccer mom behind me. I hated her simply for her passenger-free, fuel-sucking Land Rover — which was certainly canceling out all my hybrid's hard eco-work. As she nervously studied the interior of her designer purse to avoid eye contract with the clearly psychotic woman facing her (me), I felt no guilt in wishing an eco-karma death for her. (Choking on her own fumes would be ironic, but swallowed whole by polar bears worked too.)


This is screaming hilarious!

#2 What's even more hilarious, in terms of overall pollution, counting gas and other consumables, these hybrids pollute more than hummers. Hi-tech plastics and heavy metals are far more eco-bad than plain steel. So while that hummer will rust away pretty quick, your lovely hybrid will outlast styrofoam and has the capacity to pollute the groundwater far worse.

The Toyota Pious episode, I believe.
