[Jeff Detrich]

On the road, I get 20+ mpg with about 400 hp. That guilt trip just won't
fly with me.

     Dr. Tilak Doshi not only works for petroleum producers, he works for
     the king of Saudi Arabia. He's a Senior Research Fellow at the King
     Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center in Riyadh, Saudi
     Arabia. Forbes rewrote his bio, calling him an economist who "worked
     in the oil and gas sectora, trying to make him sound like some kind
     of neutral researcher. Forgive me if I donat take this article
     particularly seriously. He sounds like the doctors back in the a50s
     who were paid to promote all the medical benefits of smoking.
     Our cars are fun and yes, they use a lot of gas. But they are
     vanishingly rare, no more are being made, and we donat drive them
     much compared to our daily drivers. Iam not too worried about the
     impact our cars have, but on the other hand, we sure donat need this
     kind of propaganda muddying up the waters.
