We Americans, and I count myself among them, are a consuming gluttonous people. We eat too much, we drink too much and we use too much gasoline. (Among other things.)
Now that the "summer vacation time" is upon us, just look at the vehicle next to you as you drive along (alone, of course) and see Ma and Pa Kettle in their gas guzzling RV driving from L.A. to Jacksonville, FL to visit their friends. All the while they are passing Fred and Wilma, driving their humongous RV from Detroit to Palm Springs. And all the while they are passing hundreds, thousands, MILLIONS of vehicles on their way to work, or wherever, with only ONE person in the vehicle.
The "Talking Heads" are telling us that gasoline will soon hit the 4 and even 5 dollar mark and the only thing that will cause us Americans to "conserve" will be for the price of gasoline to hit 10 dollars a gallon! Do you really think that will do it? I say, HELL NO! I guess it's a matter of...
