    Looks fine as long as there's no camera flash.

    Seriously... I spent 30 minutes of my 45 minute commute this morning looking at it and 45 minutes of my 90 minute commute home and it looked just fine.


    Besides... I don't give a fuck what's behind me. I've already been there, and the hooker smell is good memories :D

    In a way we are boycotting. The US is using less than in a long time. Supply and demand are no longer part of the equation. $3.57 in Albuquerque.

    Sure they are....just not US supply and demand.

    high prices happen when other countries are developing and have more demand then the US then speculators jump on board.

    An Idea that many believe should be considered:

    When oil companies extract and refine oil from US soil (or waters)...that product should be required to remain in the US for sale.

    This could change the speculative situation...and surely affect the supply/demand equation.

    After all...much of it comes from government owned & leased sites, which means we the people are providing raw materials for a business that profits overseas due to a global market.
