    good editorial about this in today's NYT

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/23/opinion/23friedman.html?_r=1&ref=opinion

    worth a read. it's been said before. of course, the reaction to this kind of thought normaly involves pitchforks and whatnot, but if we had some leadership we could, as ugly as it is, start to divest from oil (and fossil fuel in general).

    i prefer his idea to the outcome of waiting until it's too late

    I was doing this before the winter hit. Don't know if I am going to start again after I move. I will be carpooling some more though. Best thing about riding a bike is you save gas money and exercise all at the same time.
